I know there is a way to write rules in Windows Mail and the wonderful Outlook Express, but I cannot find it in Windows Live Mail, can someone guide me to the proper menu for this.

I am used to Outlook Express and it wasn't confusing.  This is confusing as most days strange things occur.  Today, I went to delete a folder marked delete as I already had a delete folder and in deleting it , deleted all of my very important folders which had been under "import" I think as I had moved them initially from outlook express.  They are not under the remaining delete folder nor are they in my recycle bin.  Where are they?  I looked under view, did compact view etc, did not retrieve the folders.  Where are they?  These were all VERY important folders. 

I don't think Windows Live Mail is a good product.  I need help in finding my folders, that is not too complicated.  Please help me.

I want to migrate from MS Outlook 2007 to WLM 2012. I have done the imap for gmail account for the inbox items. But could not get the sent items from gmail or outlook. How can I transfer the sent items in Microsoft Outlook 2007 to Windows Live Mail 2012 on the same computer with Windows7?
I have been using Windows Live Mail together with my SBC Global DSL account. SBC Global (now AT&T) uses Yahoo as the email provider for their account holders. Originally I set up Live Mail to receive emails from my SBC account as well as my Gmail account. Also, I have another address which is forwarded to my SBC account.  I did not have a problem with this setup for the better part of five years but last week due to some changes that Yahoo instituted some of my emails were getting lost in the forwarding process. This is not acceptable as this is work related. As I do not like the thought of changing my ISP I changed the "forward to" address on the business related account from "address @ sbcglobal.net" to "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***". Everything works well except now I'm getting two emails in my inbox and I can't figure out a way to get rid of the duplicate. Thanx for your help

My computer prompted me to update my Windows essentials 2012. I did that.

After, I tried to log into Live mail. The program asked me for my password. I entered my old password, however it was not recognised.

I clicked on password forgotten and was taken into the process of getting a new password from Microsoft.

The new password did not work and my live mail was locked.

I am trying to get into my old account by setting a new account with a new e-mail.

What is wrong with the update?

Thanks

Following the directions given in help:

It says click on MAIL at the lower left,

Click on FILE at the upper left.

There is no FILE in any part of the bars at the top.

Is there a way to get FILE to show?

When I click on JUNK I do not get the Security Settings that I am looking for.  Are they somewhere else?   Left click, I lose the highlighted message.  Right click, shows 3 options, add toolbar and pertaining to ribbon,    but not Security Settings.  thank you.
