Dear Sir,
When I try to send mail in Outlook Express, the following error occurs

An unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP, Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x800C0131

My System Configuration
Pentium II 400 Mhz, 256 MB SDRAM
Windows 98 SE,
Outook Express 6.0 with Latest Update

with advance thankx,

If compacting does not resolve the problem, read the consequences, and
follow the directions below.

0x800c0131: Damaged or missing folders.dbx file

Symptoms

You are unable to send email, and you receive the following message:

Unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP Port: 0 Secure: No [SSL] Error:
0x800c0131

Cause
This behavior can occur if the Folders.dbx file is missing, damaged, or
using the read-only attribute.
Resolution
Rename the Folders.dbx file:
1. Click Start, point to Find, and then click Files or Folders.
2. In the Named box, type folders.dbx.
3. In the Look In box, click your primary hard disk (usually drive C), and
then click Find Now.
4. Right-click the Folders.dbx file, and then click Rename.
5. Type folders.old, and then click OK.
6. Start Outlook Express. This creates a new Folders.dbx file automatically.

You may have some corruption in one or more of your DBX files, usually in
Folders.dbx. To try and correct it, try compacting your mail folders while
working offline. If that fails, then, see this article for some help:
