I have used Live Mail for a couple of years with no problems but a couple of days ago it would not load when I clicked on the desktop icon. I have tried repairing it, uninstalling and reinstalling but it still won't work. I have even tried a system restore. All to no avail. If I right click on the desktop icon I have a menu which enables me to write a new email, but I can't get to my emails. PLEASE HELP!
Hi There,

I manage my personal email and calendar using Windows Live Mail and Outlook.com. These two sync with each other automatically. In the past, I have also used the interface to access other emails, having different accounts easily viewable and usable as required.

I have recently started studying at an educational institution, that has given us Office365 web service accounts. There are also calendars available etc. I have added the institution's calendars to my Outlook.com/Live Mail without any issues at all, using ICS. I would also like to add my Office365 educational email account as a Send/Receive account in my Outlook.com/Live Mail. 

I used the Office365 function that gives you a pop up dialogue with the POP3 settings, but when I use these settings in the Advanced section of the "Add a Send/Receive Account" portion of the Outlook.com interface, I get messages that tell me that they cannot connect with the service or that the user name and password may be wrong.

I also asked my institution's IT department and they gave me the same server names but somewhat different Port/SSL settings. These also did not work. They have checked that their POP3 services are working for others though. I also tried using full and partial email addresses as login names etc and played with some of the SSL and port settings, without success.

The IT department suggested strongly that I should use EAS or IMAP to set up the account, but as far as I know, this is not an option in Outlook.com. If somebody can tell me how to do this, that would be very helpful.

I did consider moving my personal services over to the Office365 environment, but had various issues there:

1) When I tried to add my personal outlook.com account in the "Connected Accounts" page, it said that it couldn't connect, although I double checked that I had enabled POP access on my Outlook.com account. I also tried using the main email address and alias addresses without success.

2) When I imported my personal Outlook.com calendar into Office365 as an ICS, all of the times were shifted by 1 hour (although they appear fine in Outlook.com and Live Mail), which makes the integration as good as useless really.


It seems to me, that it should really be very straight-forward to integrate these two services from Microsoft. As far as I know, the stimulus for Microsoft to create Outlook.com and Office365.com was that Google removed support for EAS and for Calendar syncing... but I am now having problems because Outlook.com doesn't seem to offer the option of adding an account using EAS, Office365 refuses to find the Outlook.com email account and the calendars that I try to share across the two services will not share accurately.

Any help that people can give will be gratefully received.

I have 4 email addresses set up on my Windows Live Program.  3 for one business, 1 for another.  This last one, which I use most, suddenly cannot send email out, although I can receive email into it. 

 

I spent an hour on the phone with GoDaddy yesterday verifying that my server settings are set up appropriately.  All things seem to be set to go....ut no go.

 

Super Frustrated!  Getting behind on emails and slowing down my business!!!  :(

 

Please help!!!

Did you have a POP mail server like RR.com that worked with windows live mail on windows 8?
   Can anybody tell me WHY I get all these strange markings ( marked in RED) for hyphens, quotation marks, etc., on SOME parts of an e-mail I’m trying to print out, but NOT (marked in BLUE) in others ?
   These weird  a^C~ ‘s make the letter basically un-readable ! HOW do I get RID of the RED marked a^C~ ‘s ?
Thank you,
Drew McClure
