I have not changed anything in windows live mail but over the last week or so when I delete an email it does not go into my deleted box but disappears completely, thus I cannot reinstate an email if required.    I have accidentally deleted an email today and again it is not in the deleted box but has gone completely.   I would be grateful if you could advise.
When I try to send an email to a distribution list, it will not send. I got one message about security issues. I can't find a place to change settings. I have McAffee so would that be the problem?

Hey there

I'm running WLM 2012 16.4.3528.0331 on Win 8.1

I want to get rid of the Quick View folder in the folders pane.

I saw in another post that it's possible to hide it, and the way to do that depends on which version of WLM one is running.  But other than that overall comment, there are no actual suggestions on how to do this.  (rasmith59, I'm looking at you)

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Why can I not send an email from my Hotmail account to any livemail account? I have been trying to upload my resume to a company. First I went to their link to upload and the live account locked my computer up. Then I tried to send directly from my Hotmail to a specific livemail and it keeps coming back as a postal failure (no code).  I can not send anything to any livemail account. What is the problem? I need to get this resume to them asap.

Original Title: work offline

I have problems with my live mail, I am only receiving junk mail in my box. I noticed that the work offline has an X on it. I looked at different solutions published here and they state to use Alt-F to get a pop up menu and un-click it. When I try it there is no "work offline" tab shown. I use IE 11 on windows 7.

How do I install Windows Live Mail to my desktop (not the web which is already installed).  Thank you!

I use Window Live Mail 2012 on Toshiba Laptop Windows 8.1, about a week ago I stopped receiving email notifications for my reminders. I have tried the following:

Searched Message Board for Win Live Calendar.

Uninstalled Windows Live and re installed it.

Repaired Windows Live

Changed setting in calander.live in options to reflect email notification on reminders. Made sure send reminder to device wasnt selected but email address.

Ran several test on windows live and caledar.live and none received email.

I am getting notification reminder on my Iphone, but not a  email reminder. The notification on phone disappears and I prefer the email on reminders to be saved until task is complete.

I have used Windows/Hotmail for email for the last 15 years and am reluctant to change platforms. However, If this cant be resolved then I have no choice but to switch to Gmail/Calendar.

When I try to send email I get following error message.   Can receive emails ok though.

An unknown error has occurred.

Subject 'testing outbox'
Server: 'smtp.live.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0B
Protocol: SMTP

I bought a Dell 660S about a year ago, all has been well with email since, no problems. Then about 2-3 weeks ago, this very frustrating cycle of issues started happening with WLM.

When I get home at night to check my mail, I start WML and then after 1 minute I get a pop up window that says, basically, my server has not responded and do I wish to wait another 60 seconds or stop the operation. There is no error code.

When I click wait, it will pause 1 minute and this cycle will continue indefinitely.

If I click stop but wait a few minutes then go back and click "Send & Receive" I get a separate pop up window that asks for my user name and password from my mail provider (who is Internet America). I enter my user name and p/w, but as soon as I do and hit enter, it pops right back up and asks the same darn question, no matter how many times I do it (I am entering the absolute correct info).

I usually have to go to Internet America's webmail site and check my email, which is a big pain, and then empty all my pending mail. Once it is clear and there is no more, my email magically starts working.

On the few occasions it does work, I keep getting the same emails over and over. When I look at them on the IA server, there is only one email, but WLM will download it three or four times.

My wife has a separate log in on the same machine, same WLM program, but has none of these problems. I called Internet America twice, spent over and hour with them on the phone last night, and they swear it's not their server, that what they see is simply my email in the server inbox, and when my machine checks it, it's gone. They have no issues. The IT guy said that he thought it was on my end. I tend to agree since my wife's email works fine with same program, same internet email provider and she has no issues.

I've never had these kind of buggy problems with WLM, but it's getting very frustrating. Sometimes when it gets caught in one of these loops I have to restart my machine. Doing that every third time or so I want to check my mail is getting weary.
