Windows Live Mail FAQ
Hi,
In Windows Live Mail (the local mail client/manager of W7 and W8), in File--> Options --> Security Options -->Security … I have the "Block images and other external content in HTML e-mails" option ACTIVATED and the “Show images and external content sent from e-mail addresses of my safe senders list” option DEACTIVATED
So, with this configuration it’s supposed that all images (and any other external content) should never be displayed when I open the emails.
However, although most of the images are correctly blocked (with a black cross at the left upper side) in most of the emails…in some SPAM messages (only some of them) there are images (I don´t know how are they embebbed) that are still shown / downloaded without my authorization or permission.
¿where / what’s the problem?
¿Is there any way to avoid this behavior in order to avoid tracking?
Thanks.
Regards.
Original Title: Microsoft Account Address and Alias addresses
I have a Microsoft account with a hotmail E-mail address. I have set up three hotmail alias addresses. I can send E-mails from any of the 3 addresses but the recipient always sees them as coming from my Microsoft A/c address. Also when I receive E-mails they are copied to the 3 Alias addresses regardless. I am using Microsoft Live Mail. What am I doing wrong?
I am running windows 7 Premium version 6.1 *Build 7601: Service Pack 1),
and use Windows live as my email tool: Windows Live Mail Version 16.4.3508.0205 *
I have downloaded the latest windows essentials,
I am current on all Windows updates
My PC:
2.40 gigahertz AMD Phenom 9750 Quad-Core
8192 Megabytes Installed Memory
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT [Display adapter] ST375063 0AS SCSI Disk Device (750.15 GB) |
I have several hundred contacts, so I have set up categories.
I use my Hotmail as my mail email default program, though, I do have other email accounts in Widows Live:
I have found that the category tool does not work the same each time I log on. when I add my category to my email TO: box and hit the "+" sign, I get only a few, the first 8 to 10 names in my category ( my category has 48 names)
If I reboot, and then I find that it only shows the last 8-10 of 48 names in my category, different than the first time I logged in?
When I check the contact list the category shows all 48 names.
I have read thru all the comments in your forum and I do not seem to be alone in this issue.
I have also tried your suggestions of uninstalling, and reinstalling the Windows Live tool, as well as using the "repair" process in the uninstall/Change box in Control Panel.
I have also found that if I use the Admin, Task manager, and shut down windows live, on occasion, it will resolve the issue, but only for a little while.
I use this as a business tool, and am very frustrated, this seems to be getting worse, not better.
Thanks for any help

At some point I accidentily used my gmail user name in the transfer to or set up to live mail. Now my live mail has two accounts but both are a live accounts not gmail and live just live : example *** Email address is removed for privacy ***(incorrect) the other *** Email address is removed for privacy *** (correct). Everytime that I try to email using the correct live account it is not sent and a error box appears saying unable to send email. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*** Email address is removed for privacy ***.
When I attempt to run "Windows Live Mail" I get a message; "Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing Windows Live mail to close. (0x8E5E03FF) Is there a solution to solve this problem?
