Since asking previous question re the above error code I have tried to reply to an email in windows live mail and received the following message
An error occurred whilst trying to open this message. A problem has occurred. Please try again.
After clicking OK the following message appears

This seems to mean that I cannot use windows live mail to send messages
Please advise

I have been using WLM 2012 for many months. Post installing W10 [I suspect even before] I have had the following problems.
WLM seems to work fine for some time. Then, after starting the computer from sleep, WLM freezes and the only way to re- establish this is to restart the computer. Other times after having restarted the computer from sleep I get the message:
"Unable to send or receive for [My account]. An incorrect password was entered. The next time you send or receive messages you will be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.
Server error 0x800CCC90 etc, etc."
In entering the username and password the message just repeats and you get nowhere and have to restart
I understand this error message comes from problems in the registry and I have since purchased and run software which suppose to address this issue, without success.
I have unistalled and reinstalled WLM on 2 occasions and also queried my ISP who says it is not a problem of their system.
I have used an alternative email program and this seems to work OK. I do however prefer to use WLM.
Has anyone any ideas on this?
Hello,
I received an e-mail on 12/11/2015 from Outlook that said:
In a few weeks, we will be making some changes to our email services that might impact your @outlook.com, @hotmail, @live, or @msn email account. Those changes will prevent your email from being delivered to the Windows Live Mail 2012 application you use.
In order to continue using Windows Live Mail 2012 to send and receive email for your account, you need to install the latest update published here.
I followed the link and the program gives to option, repair or remove Windows Live Mail. I did the repair and figured that applied the patch. The dl instructions were pretty vauge and pretty much just said download it and run it. It didn't mention a repair
or remove option.
All seemed well until today. I noticed I had received some e-mails at my @live.com account on my phone....yet when I went to my PC they did not show up in Windows Live Mail 2012. It seems the program will still send mail from there, but it will not find new
messages to my @live.com account.
I can still see the mail on the outlook.com website, but my Windows Live Mail 2012 does not show the new e-mails. No errors or anything.....if I didn't know I actually had new e-mails...it would seem everything was fine. I do have another email account setup
in Windows Live Mail 2012 and it is behaving normally.
I did my best to be prepared for this "change" that the e-mail warned about, but dl that program and repairing the program did not seem to fix things. It's also weird that I can still send from it, but not receive the new e-mails.
Help would be appreciated.
