Hi 2golfornot2golf,

Welcome to Microsoft Community. We understand that you are having several issues in your Windows Live Mail. In this case, we have some questions we'd like to ask:

• Have you also tried to access your account via the web based Outlook.com to see if those 2 issue will persist?
• Have you tried to access other Microsoft account on the same computer in Windows Live Mail just to check if the same issue will arise?

For the meantime, please try to repair your Windows Live Mail by following the steps below:

1. Go to Control Panel.
2. Under Programs, click Uninstall a Program.
3. Locate Windows Essentials 2011 or Windows Essentials 2012, and then click Uninstall/Change.
4. When a window appears, select Repair all Windows programs.
5. Restart your computer after the repair.

Please return back if the issue has been fixed. If not, we will further assist in you resolving the issue.

Thanks!

I get innumerable unwanted solicitations daily via Windows Live Mail and would like this to stop
