This has been happening for a month without me knowing - not good seeing as I am at work trying to email clients
I have Windows 8 and use Windows Live 2012 and have it set up with IMAP. After setting up the account, I was presented with four Sent Folders, three Deleted Folders and three Junk folders.
Deleted Folders are named Deleted, Deleted Messages and Deleted Items. Sent Folders are named Sent, Sent Items, Sent Messages and SentMail (no space between words). Junk Folders are named Junk, Junk E-mail and Junk Mail.
Deleted, Sent and Junk mail are not duplicated and sent to all folders. They are sent to one of the other.
When I want to find a sent or deleted email, it is a nightmare. The Sent Items/messages/sentmail folders tells date/subject/from (me, of course) but not the receipient which makes it nearly impossible to search for a sent email.
I have an iphone and the same folders are also on my phone. Another thing I find strange is that I have a folder in my Windows Live that is named Notes. I did not set up this folder, it just appeared when I created the IMAP account. The Notes in this folder are the exact same as the notes I created in my iPhone (which has nothing to do with email) as reminders to myself. I don't have a problem with them being in my Windows Live but wonder why and how this folder was put there. It all is just so strange.
Thank you for any help you may be able to give to me. (I put this post under Sending and Receiving Email because there was no other selection that described my question.)
MY HARD DRIVE CRASHED AND WHEN I RESTORED AFTER FITTING A NEW DRIVE MY WINDOWS LIVE MAIL CONTACTS WAS EMPTY
ALL MY CONTACTS ARE IN A PEOPLE ACCOUNT, BUT THERE IS NO APRENT LINK TO RESTORE THE CONTACTS FROM PEOPLE?
CAN ANYONE OFFER A WAY OF DOING THIS?
After losing a number of contacts on my phone recently, I was able to recover a backup of some vcf files to restore into Windows Live Mail to sync and merge the missing contact data. Unfortunately, I've run into problems with WLM not reading the address component of the vcf files correctly and as such I am unable to bulk recover missing address data.
An example of a vcf file and how WLM interprets it incorrectly is below:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
FN;CHARSET=utf-8;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:
N;CHARSET=utf-8;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:FakeSurname;RealFirstName;;;;

ORG;CHARSET=utf-8;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:
NOTE;CHARSET=utf-8;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:
END:VCARD
Everything appears to be importing ok except the address is being imported to the wrong containers. Using this vcf, the home "suburb/city" Fawnegie is read as the street address, and the "post code" 3111 is read as the city. No other information about the address is imported. As for the work address, only the postcode is read, and ends up displaying as the city as well. I'm sure you can copy the above and test it yourself to confirm.
Is there a batch fix I can apply to my vcf files to get them to import correctly? Otherwise I need to go through 600+ contacts manually to confirm the correct address.

jt
