I am using Windows Live Mail version 2011,  in Windows 7. It worked fine until today. I replied to an email and only got a blank answer frame with a reply heading and Unicode UTF 8. I  tried answering several different emails, all with the same result. Now, in addition to the reply freezing, Live Mail is closing itself and restarting each time. 

I have gone into the Options menu  Read - Fonts, and default is set to Western European (Windows).  In Send, Reply to messages using format in which it was sent is unchecked. International settings is default Western European(Windows).  I have experimented with checking and unchecking things and changing defaults to Unicode UTF 8 etc, but it seems to make no difference.

Please help if possible.

Thanks

Outlook Hotmail just changed their format starting Saturday the 10th of January 2016 which I have been having difficulty working with.  My problem is when I scan a document to an e-mail it goes in the Windows Live Mail and I can type in a message and insert the attachments but when I click send I get a Server error 3219 with error OX8DE00005?  I had now problem with doing this before they changed Outlook.  How can I correct the errors?

I updated Windows Essentials today as an optional update in windows updater, i have a file folder in my email that says "saved items" with several folders under that folder, They Have All Disappeared, how can i get them back, i can see them in windows Outlook (which I HATE), and I can see them on my Android tablet, but not in Live MAIL!!!

I have Dell desktop, Win10 since August 1st, 2015, WLMail2012, Firefox browser.

Hi! someone please let me know the following?

Ever since MS installed automatically Win10 in my computer, I've been suffering 2 weeks every 2 other weeks the shutting down of my emails and/or my internet and/or my Word.

Right now, I've been WITHOUT my WLMail2012 and my Word for the entire week, though I'm able to use the internet.

As you all know, using only one of these 3 elements is of very little use!  I've had it with this thing going on for 6 months!!!

But before I try to go back to Win7, please someone let me know if there's any sign of WHEN they'll end this shutting down thing once and for all, please?

Thanks ever so much fro any idea!   Leidirose

P.S.  Since I have my passwords in my email and I can't open it now, I may not remember my password here to post this and can't even save it to my email...     :o(      Sigh....

Tried to find another, more direct way in which to open and finalize draft e-mails, an approach described in >>http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/livemail-files/missing-2-saved-folders-in-windows-live-mail/0dc83d43-b233-4e78-93a8-255bccdec633<<  

1. Folder display options were setup with the selections required, and

then Windows Explorer was reopened, per those instructions and I navigated 

"

C:Usersyour nameAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindows Live Mail

    (Where 'your name' is the name of the account that you use to logon to Windows 7) 

2.  From there I "... saw all of the WLM storage folders. Each email account will have its own group of folders. 

c. Any general storage folders that you created will under the main Storage Folder item. 

 

3. Make a copy of the Windows Live Mail folders previous version. 

   

a. Right click the Windows Live Mail folder and select Properties / Previous Versions Tab

b. After the list populates, select a version of the folder with a date and time prior to when the folders were deleted

There was/were no Windows Love Mail Folder(s) previous version, and there were no files in the DRAFT or the SENT folders no matter which option under Properties was chosen, and no previous version objects could be located (because this is the recent, original installation and setup?

However when I opened the Main Windows Live Mail Window, then clicking on "Draft" and "Sent" files were displayed and could be retrieved.

So that is the only way to do it, no direct shortcut I could build or make?  BTW only the WLM 2012 files were ever setup, and only once

Thanks

Hi. I upgraded to Windows 10 but decided I didn't like it. After seeing we could roll back to Windows 7 (or 8) I clicked to roll back and uninstalled Windows 10. All was fine with Windows 7 starting again until I opened Windows Live Mail. All of my emails are gone. I've tried importing them from where I thought they were located (ie. Appdata/local/Microsoft/WindowsLiveMail. It seemed to be importing emails however when I looked I discovered they were my old, old emails pre-2012, from when I had imported those ones from an old computer onto my current one. I tried again and found a different location (under different User... one had been my name, one was admin)... and imported, these looked like the right folders, but when I click to look in them (in storage folders and then double clicking each folder) nothing is there. It looks like new folders have been made. My hotmail emails seem fine but I don't often use that account. It is my other personal email addresses and website email addresses that I am more concerned about. Anyone else rolled back from Windows 10 to Windows 7 or know where the emails could be.  How can I get them back?

As of today one of my hotmail accounts has stopped getting email on WLM. WLM has been patched with the 17.12.15 patch released by MS but this has made no difference. Have deleted the account and readded it and it appeared to be working ok but later on today mails are not arriving. I have another hotmail account which IS working and getting test emails. Also Windows 10 Mail app sees the emails but I cant make new folders and store emails on that. Any ideas?

I have serveral computers with the Windows 8.1 OS. I absolutely do not like the Windows Outlook mail that comes with 8.1. I installed Windows Live Mail 2012 onto the computers. I have entered in the proper information for incoming and outgoing mail in the Live Mail 2012 but when trying to send a message I get an error message saying it cannot locate my POP3 host. But it appears that I can receive a message in the Live Mail 2012 using the smtp configuration. Does Windows Live Mail 2012 work in the 8.1 OS?  If it can work then how do I get it to send out emails.
I am using iPad 2 and live.ca mail,but when I send an email it shows up as being sent from a telusplanet.net account that I used to have. So when they hit reply it goes to telusplanet account and I don't receive it.
