Hi! I'm having a problem syncing folders to my Windows Live Mail. I have set everything up with the correct ingoing and outgoing server settings, and everything is working ok. The main inbox is syncing with the webmail and all the emails are showing up.

However, the way the RoadRunner webmail is set up is that there are a bunch of folders, each containing its own set of emails, not contained within the main inbox. These are the emails that are, for some reason, not syncing properly. None of these folders are syncing with windows live mail.

Does anyone have experience with this, or know how to get these emails to download and sync?

Thanks!

Edit: I should add that I have already spoken on the phone to Roadrunner about the problem, and they directed me to Microsoft. When I talked to Microsoft, they directed me here.

 

“Pictures . . . could not be found” is nonsense!

 

In WLMail, when I forward an email containing pictures dispersed within the text, I get the message - - -

One or more of the pictures in this message could not

be found. When you send this message these pictures

will not be included. Are you sure you want to send this

message?

                        Yes                 No

 

Nonsense! WLMail can and does find these pictures, and it does send them, but not as the sender intended.

What WLMail can not and will not do is keep the pictures dispersed within the text as they are before the email is forwarded.

Instead WLMail bastardizes the email before it is sent, includes all pictures as attachments at the top of the message, and completely destroys the original layout.

 

As far as I know, WLMail is the only email client/program that does this.

 

I guess the big question is why? And why has this not been rectified? Seriously.

 

I could hazard a guess, but what is really needed is an answer from Microsoft.

Prohibited File type

 

Why do I get 'Prohibited File Type' when attempting to view my own photos in 'Sent'? They are successfully received.

 

When I click on the email icon on the task bar, the windows live logo comes up with the "refresh-loading" spiral, but can't get past that.

I uninstalled Windows Live Essentials and reinstalled the program. Now WLM works correctly.  It took about 15 minutes which is a waste of my time.

In the past sometimes when I am uninstalling it asked if I want to repair the bad programs and I said yes.  This is much faster than removing the entire program and reinstalling it.  How can I get to this option?

i had mail saved in folders in windows live mail,after reinstalling,i lost my folders.how do i retrieve lost folders and the mail saved too them

Everytime I try to check both of my Hotmail accounts on LiveMail I get the following:

 

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail (________) account.

Server Error: 3204
Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE20003

 

This has been going on now for over a week. It works fine when checking my google account but not Hotmail. I went through the forum and tried the various fixes and still nothing. the last thing I tried was to delete the Hotmail accts from Livemail and then add them again. Since then Livemail has been stuck stating that LiveMail is synchronizing the account and to recheck in a few minutes and the status bar is stuck indicating that it's updating the calendar...BTW, I'm running Win7x64 Home Premium if that matters any.

Running Windows 7 Professional.  Did a system restore last week and all worked fine.  Beginning yesterday, Live Mail won't start and gives the above listed error code.  I have searched for answers online and most seem to center around a bad install of Windows Live Essentials, but I do not see this in my Control Panel to uninstall.

 

I need to fix by tomorrow when my wife comes home. 

 

Have to think something got corrupted with an update or similar.

 

Thanks
