I'm so frustrated with windows live mail because of this error message "Message cannot be found" I've done the resolve all problems thing in programs - uninstall/change - but the problem persist

Everytime I try and send a message to a group/category I get the following message coming up:

An unknown error has occurred.

Subject 'Barry Hilton Live! '
Server: 'smtp.gmail.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0B
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 465

If I am replying or just sending an email to one or two people they get sent but this error only occurs when I try and send to a category.

Please help!

I cannot find a way to download windows live mail using windows 10.
How do I restore the function of sub folders? It worked until recently but no longer does. This is important!
I have downloaded Windows Essentials and previously installed Photo Gallery.  I now would like install Windows Live Mail, but I cannot find this, although it shows in Windows Essentials in Programs and Features.  Neither Windows Essentials nor Live Mail show in the list of apps.
Hi I recently had my comp repaired at a shop. while it loaded all my files on the desktop when I started the comp at the shop (checking to repairs were done) it now doesn't show them at all on the desktop. It says I can't view hidden files and it's my desktop. I have clicked "show hidden files" then restarted the comp and yet it takes me right back to only these three items on my desktop >>google chrome, recycle bin & yahoo messenger.  That's it.  I am the administrator so why can't I view my files? how do I correct this? I have windows 10 and even contana won't work

Just a few days ago - Windows Live Mail - which has been operating on Windows 10 since I installed 10 months ago stopped working and I get the following message

Unable to send or receive messages for the Charter (xxxxxx) (1) account. Header download for the 'Inbox' folder did not complete. Could not download new messages from the IMAP server.

Server Response: The server did not respond to this IMAP command before the connection was terminated.
Server: 'IMAP.charter.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0F
Protocol: IMAP
Port: 143
Secure(SSL): No

I have run Essentials repair - I have tried switching to POP - I have contacted the server techies also - but to no avail.  I have created a new account - and it added all the data from the IMAP account on this computer - but then failed with the same message when the 'get' tried to execute.   

Also tried to sync Windows 10 new mail program - and it will not sync.

Is this a Windows 10 problem - if so it is new?  If it is a server problem - then they should have experienced this with other customers.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

windows 10 upgraded ok, but cannot sign into windows live  mail 2012,,. yes using Microsoft account password , yes that gets me into Microsoft account - so it is working , but still wont sign into live mail to synch contacts etc ,, ongoing problem for months ,, chatted with help desk multiple times , said no support try forums for help ,,.

fat lot of good they were! any one out there any better to resolve this issue before i drown in my tissue!!

Started this on the wrong forum. Had few answers but none worked.

I'm running Windows 10pro and nothing was done prior to this issue starting, as far a s I know.

It started when I was asked to sign back into win live for security, then had an issue with POP3 server password, this has all now been resolved.

So we are now back to the original issue with a pop up saying "A problem occurred while trying to open this message, A problem occurred. Please try again" every time I open a new mail or try to reply/forward to an existing mail

Tried repairing Essentials 2012 and also uninstalling, then followed a couple threads and managed to end up not even being able to start live mail

Managed to get e-mail working again after uninstalling essentials, deleting reg keys and marking windows live, live files in user/app data/Local/Microsoft/ as old.

By doing that I also had to reenter all my mail settings, so I know they are correct


I ran a log for e-mail in maintenance and this is the result, when I try to open a new mail, hope it helps.

[10:24:55.75] 385c                 Mail:            Zone_MailChk ERROR: (composehost.cpp:446), failed with 0x80070057

I've also just installed essentials 2012 and my email on a laptop running windows 10 home, using the same settings, and all is ok
