Hi,

I have just started using Windows Live Mail 2012 with Windows 7, and generally very happy with it. One slight annoyance is what happens when I double click on the new mail notification icon (the one with the yellow envelope in front of the blue one). This takes me to the inbox of the default email account, even if the new mail has arrived in one of my other email accounts! When there is no new mail, double clicking this icon (blue envelope only) takes me to whatever folder/account I was last viewing (which makes sense). Ideally I would like the new mail notification icon to take me to the Quick views/Unread email folder. Is this possible?

Regards,

Adrian

 

<Windows 7>

the problem started today i signed in to messenger and clicked on the "you have 3 new emails" and instead of taking me right to me email inbox it takes me to the windows live homepage.  this is new to me and i don't much like it.  i am running xp, messanger live version 14.0.8.117.416.  i hope it is a problem with an easy fix.  i can still click on the link in the windows live webpage but it the link should take me to my inbox.  thank you for you help and hope to hear back soon.

when i clink on the envelope on mt messenger pane it jumps to inbox windows live mail .

this happened as soon as u changed to this new email format . i have to open internet explorer on my desktop and click on windows live link to get to this email page .

i would really like it to be linked or pined or whatever it is

 

I have Outlook 2011 for Mac. I tried to empty my Deleted Items folder and instead it permanently deleted all the subfolders I had under my Inbox On My Computer. How do I get them back? No, they are not in the Deleted Items.
The time on my inbox is different than the actual time how can I correct this?

I asked about ungrouping e-mails by conversation, which microsoft apparently automatically did to my hotmail when they forced me to upgrade to Internet Explorer 8:

My saved emails are chained together if they are forwarded or replies. How do I unchain them?

Hi,

 

It is possible that your Conversation threading feature is enable. Please be informed that in Conversation Threading, it’s easier to find the email you’re looking for by customizing your Hotmail inbox view. Just group together messages based on conversation, date, subject, and size.

When you sort by conversation, you can find multiple messages from different people on the same subject. That way you can view them all together and not miss an important response. 

 

If you want to disable this feature, please refer to the steps below.

 

1. Login to your Hotmail Inbox.
2. Click Gear Icon - More mail settings
3. Under Reading email, choose Group by conversation and pre-loaded messages
4. Under Conversation settings, Click button beside Show messages individually to disable conversation setting.
5. Click Save.

To know more about conversation threading, please refer to this
solution article.

Thanks!

I don't see a gear icon.  "Options" doesn't have more mail settings.
 
But the e-mail wasn't delivered.

the font on my hotmail inbox has suddenly shrunk, as has the folder font size, it has shrunk to 10.          I have managed to change the e mail font  I compose and signature back to a reasonable size but how do I change the main page and file name fonts back to decent size??  please could someone help?
I use hotmail on Safari not Outlook.
