Windows Live Mail FAQ
keep getting this error, have used the hotmix mamy times, it seems to fix error for limited time period... only have 1 account on client,
Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3522.0110)
xps I7 cpu, 12gb ddr3,
windows 7 ultimate 64bit
bullguard internet security
so shouldn't be a problem, network firewall is not blocking live mail....
For the past week or so I've been receiving the following error message on Windows Live Mail:
Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail account.
Server Error: 3204
server: "https://mail.services.live.com/deltaSync_2.0.0/Sync.aspx"
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE20003
I've tried opening and closing the program, restarting the computer, deleting and adding the account, and installing the latest version of Live Mail. Nothing is working. Could you please assist me?
Other info:
- No issues with syncing mail on my smartphone or accessing it through the Microsoft Live website
- Syncing status on live mail repeatedly attempts to update my calendar
Thanks for the help.
Here is my problem.
I have almost 25000 emails in my gmail account that i sync with my WLM. So I ended up with this massive email folder on my computer that is over 8gb and slows down any scans (virus, searches etc.)
I just want to keep my WLM current, like the last week.
How can I delete all my old emails from my WLM and still keep them in my gmail? Everytime I delete something it automatically syncs the delete on my gmail. And of course, when i do this I do not want it to be re synced.
Any advice?
Thanks in advanced!
There was an update to Windows Essentials recently (Feb 2014). When installed it deleted Windows Live Mail and left me with no access to email.
This was VERY bad for me as I needed to receive a ferry ticket immediately. I used System Restore to go back to the previous state and everything was OK but it took a long time and was very worrying. Has anyone else had this problem? I don't even know what Windows Essentials is nor whether I need it. I will not take any further updates until I can have some sort of assurance that this will not happen again.
System is:- Windows 8.1;
email is;- Windows Live Mail 2012 version 16.4.3508.0205
Hi,
I recently ran the update for Windows Essentials 2012 and ever since I'm unable to send emails to addresses of the same hosted domain.
Originally I couldn't send emails at all so I checked my email address properties with my hosting company and they have confirmed they are correct, but because I was receiving a timeout socket error I spoke with my ISP who changed the smtp server to their smtp server and unchecked requires server authentication.
This allowed me to send emails outside my hosted domain but I'm still unable to send to an email address of the same domain.
I never had any problems at all until I ran the Windows Essentails 2012 update. I've tried removing and adding the email account several times and uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Live Mail, I've even spoken with Microsoft who sent me here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Julian.
The calendar function is constantly updating in windows live mail. As a result, my email will not send/receive. I have to keep shutting down live mail and restarting it to get my email - it downloads emails once, then goes back to constantly updating calendar - the 'updating calendar' message is constantly flashing in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
I am running windows 7.
I have read all the suggestions on the forums and nothing has worked.
I have phoned microsoft who have just passed me round different departments and finally wanted to charge me £95 to even speak to me.
Really fed up with this.
Any help anyone could offer would be hugely appreciated.
Many thanks
Linda
