When I compose a new email, and type one letter like "A", I get presented with a list of names....  some are from contacts, some are from people I've emailed once and never want to email again. How can I clear the names I never want to email again?
I completed a questionnaire form about an account on 9/2/13 and  received an issue #99939103.  My son cannot connect to his account because the email he originally signed in with is no longer active.  I spoke to an xbox live support rep who directed me to the account recovery questionairre.  I received an acknowledgement of the request with the above issue #. a few days later I received a feedback survey on how I felt my response was handled, but have not had any response to the request.  An xbox live rep has now directed me to send a question through this site.

Suddenly, my Skydrive app has stopped uploading my pictures to my cloud.  I have successfully done so with over 4000 pictures in the past.

 

I am trying for several days to get into my *** Email address is removed for privacy *** account to receive very, very important messages that I expect, after working for years on my art, and I cannot get there , because there is a  message that  keeps coming that someone else is using my account,. Than I am asked to go to my alternate email account which I almost never used , probably at least for 6-7 years, whose password I do not remember , not even complete user name. Than i am being asked my grandfather's occupation, which I do not remember what I placed, since I had two of them, each worked several professions,among which are: sailor, woodworker, worker,labourer, carpenter, police officer ...The other thing is that I already spoke to two persons in two occasions about this on Microsoft Canada phone number ( 1-877-568-2495) and about need to update my alternative email adress so that I can try go to my email account through link or whichever is the option.So my alternative email is : *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Both of these two persons were kind and polite  in their assistance , but the thing is not resolved. On my new alternative email account was sent link , but when I opened it , nothing happened , either link is dead or it just does not work. So i still ask whoever is in charge  to help me have access to my email. I am at this point without phone so my email is practically the only mean of communication and just changing my email adress of my account WOULD NOT  make up for the loss of important messages I expect , about my artwork, pictures and music. Also the content of other folders (drafts , sent etc ) is also very important to me.I hope that person from microsoft that is reviewing this will have sense of the importance that is  placed by people's choosing to communicate with the others with their email providers.I expect that Microsoft will honour that and give me back access to my account. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.God bless.

I save many e-mails that relate to my volunteer work, and I save them in regular windows folders rather than folders on the e-mail program page.

 

This has worked fine on 2 desktops using Windows XP.  I can open any of these files ending with .email or .eml if the email program that is started by clicking the envelope icon on my home MSN page.

 

However, after moving some of these files to my laptop which runs on Windows 7, trying to open one of these files brings up a wizard that wants to modify my account to use Outlook as my e-mail program. That may be fine for my laptop, but will this screw up my desktops which use XP and the older mail program which is probably just one step away from Hotmail? 

I just read some posts from Aug 2012 about 30-minute POP3 connection time. I didn't realize this is so until I sent myself an email. Is anything being done about this? Sorry Outlook.com, but this is not acceptable. When I send an email from your .com to my 1and1 servers it's instantaneous. I don't understand why Microsoft cannot perform this action on a more timely basis?

Ok...I figured I'd explain this problem 100% clearly as I have moaned, complained, rang in and posted so many times over the past few months that it's getting beyond annoying and I'm paying for every day I'm not using it.

Ok awhile back I tried signing in to my *** Email address is removed for privacy *** account.  I have had this account since 1999 and never had problems.  Due to its age EVERYTHING I started to do went through it, paypal, facebook, youtube, Xbox membership the works.  Then the outlook takeover happened.  And then my account got blocked.  No reason.  1 day went to sign in blocked.

  Upon signing in I got the usual links this is blocked if you want to unblock click links, do security check, pass it and still nothing.

EVERYTIME I ring....I spend about 40minutes explaining my problem, giving new reference numbers to different people, and STILL get sent exactly the same thing...a password reset link.  THIS DOES NOT WORK ON BLOCKED ACCOUNTS!  I tell them and they say please just click the link, I have done it so many times now I have changed my password over 40 times to random words I see in the house while on the phone to them, even telling them it will not work, they say they'll ring back, and never do.

Only 1 time did I make progress, and that was a congratulations you can unblock your account by clicking this link, to click it and the link not working.....on ANY internet browser(chrome, firefox...even explorer) on 3 different laptops...in 2 different houses.

My main reason of my anger is due to the same link to reset password being passed to me at least 10 times a day, it not working and my kids wanting to go on his xbox account)and mine for the 60+k achievement score and live) but can't because you have to sign in with the blocked account to change the email.....

I have done all the basics, cleared cache, passwords cookies etc, it literally happened as outlook took over and has made my life a quarter impossible due to my online transactions being lost to me.

PLEASE just...click a button that UNBLOCKS IT
