I have two email accounts setup as IMAP. I'm using Windows Live Mail 2011 on Windows Vista. I used the same incoming/outgoing server info for both accounts. The first account synced with the server and downloaded all the emails as normal. The second account just gives me a "download" button and doesn't find anything and eventually times out. I can access the emails from the second account on a online mail client, but it doesn't seem to want to work in Windows Live Mail. Thanks for any help.

Does the export/import email messages includes the attachments?

Does the export/import email messages includes the attachments?

In installing Windows Live Mail 2012 on Windows 8.1, I, with my mind elsewhere, did not put in the correct addresses for my email server. I cannot find out where to go to make the corrections.  I have uninstalled Windows Live Mail and then reinstalled it hoping I could then make the corrections, but it installs with the errors. Therefore, I cannot send or receive emails in Windows Live Mail.  Help, please. It was a stupid error on my part.

Below is the message I receive.

Unable to send or receive messages for the Sbcglobal (smiths1951) account. The host '*** Email address is removed for privacy ***' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly.

I was trying to learn to use Outlook from Microsoft Office. For that purpose I tried to export some emails from Windows Live Mail.

First I tried to export just the local inbox folder in Windows Live Mail. Windows Live Mail froze, it was automatically restarted. So I could not export only the local Inbox of one of the local email accounts.

Then I tried to export all the folder from one of the local email accounts.

A small window appeared telling me that the exporting of the emails took place. I was never told to what location.

I was not asked by the program to select a destination location.

I still can see my local folders and the emails in them. But , to what location were the emails exported?

Thank you for your attention.

I do not understand the purpose of the Quick view folder.  Sometimes mail comes to it, but not to the "regular" inbox.  Sometimes after I click on the mail in the quick view it disappears to spam folder.

I have tried to delete the quick view inbox, but the delete is not highlighted.

Please explain what is the purpose of this folder and how I can either remove or disable it, as I am losing emails, even from people that are on approved list.

WLM has worked for years.  Always asked me to click to see pictures imbedded in email, and allowed me to click to bring up attachments.  This morning I installed Dropbox, and my WLM got mixed up.  Now I cannot click to see imbedded photos, and cannot view or download attachments.  How can I fix this?

A problem has occurred. Please Try Again..

i have tried to do the whole FIX/REPAIR on windows essentials.

i have tried by un-installing and re-installing but still wont work..

I received this issue last week, so I removed the Outlook.com hosted email address *** Email address is removed for privacy *** from Live Mail. It worked until today, when again I got this same error.

I don't want to keep removing and installing this email account to get it working. Please fix it.

Other details:

My Live Mail client has 5 other outlook accounts - those are unaffected. For *** Email address is removed for privacy *** I have it also installed on the same computer in Outlook 2013 (software), and it in unaffected. Note, I do not use Outlook 2013 because it sucks, I use Live Mail only, I just want to point out all these details so you know it's not my firewall or anything - as if it were, the other accounts in Live Mail would stop working as well.

Everyone on the Status page for the accounts says it is operating fine.
