E-mail message stuck in Outbox.

16. January 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: Google Mail account, live mail, Live Mail screen, Windows Live Mail, Windows Live Mail Error ID

I use Windows Live Mail. My Google Mail account also appears on my Live Mail screen. I have written an e-mail that I was intending to send from my Live Mail. I have pressed "send". For some reason the e-mail has appeared in my outbox, and is sticking there without going away, and I get a message: "An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'Re: hello' Server: 'smtp.googlemail.com' Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0B Protocol: SMTP Port: 465 Secure(SSL): Yes". What is going on, and how can I send this message off??? The message is short, has no attachment. I could re-write it, but then it would look as a fresh e-mail, and it would loose its now 3 days old sending date. This I would like to avoid. Other e-mails have gone since. Thanx for your help, Andrew.

I have Windows Live Mail for my e-mail, and I have Windows Hotmail. As far as I know I don’t have a Messenger account.

Today I got an e-mail message saying I must update my Messenger account to Skype. If I have Windows Live Mail and Windows Hotmail, does that mean that I have a Messenger account? Does it mean I will lose my Windows Live e-mail account if I don't update to Skype? I've never used the instant live messenger service of Messenger nor do I want to. Also have no desire for Skype. I don't know the differences between these simiarly named services of Microsoft. As far as I know I don't have a Messenger account unless this comes along with the other ones.

Sending contact details

How can I send all the contacts in one of my Windows Live Mail categories to a colleague? Any helpful ideas welcomed

Can’t even get Windows Live Mail to open, let alone send and receive email.

I have tried a number of the recommended 'fixes' to try to get Windows Live Mail to open. I get the error message " windows live mail could not be started... unable to open the Live Mail message store. Your mail box data is being used by another program such as a virus scanner. Close the program or wait for it to complete its operation then open windows live mail again. (0x800C0155,2).

However, I have been able to get Windows Live Mail to work by setting up a new user account. This hasn't been much good to me because for some reason I am unable to import my Sent emails and I do not wish to have to log on as a different user every time I want to check my email!

When will Microsoft make programmes that fix themselves when they go wrong instead of customers having to spend hours of their life fruitlessly searching for answers and having to try to be computer experts - it's ridiculous!

Live Mail Folders Within Folders

15. January 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: Folders, Live Mail Folders, Windows Live Mail

I have folders within folders in my hotmail account.

I can see them using live mail online

I can see them using Windows Live Mail Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8117.0416 (on an old XP machine)

However, I cannot see them on my Windows 7 machine using WIndows Live Mail 2012 Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3505.0912).

Any help gratefully accepted...

Windows live mail not responding Optusnet email account

15. January 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: error message, Windows Live Mail, Windows live mail isnt

Hi.

Windows mail has been working fine up to today.

I got an error message when trying to send message which was 0x800CCC78.

I had not changed any settings / passwords etc and hadn't had this occur before.

Since then, now Windows live mail isnt connecting to receive emails either.

I can send & receive directly through Optus Web Mail.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Windows live mail will not pick up messages from the server

15. January 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: live mail, mail programme, Windows Live Essentials, Windows Live Mail

I downloaded a version of Live Mail from Windows Live Essentials, as the mail programme shipped with Win 8 is rubbish and I need POP to manage my life. I set it up to communicate with my gmail server and initially it worked OK. But every time the PC is shut down,e.g. overnight, and every time we change user accounts, Live Mail will not pick up any of the messages that have arrived at the server in the interim, and I have to log-in to my Gmail interface, re-send the new messages to myself, and then and only then will Live Mail pick them up. If the PC is on and remains at the same user account, the pick-up works fine. I have checked the settings in the account set-up, and everything is correct, but this unreliability is driving me mad, I don't trust the program, I have to check the Gmail at the server constantly to ensure I don't miss stuff. Can anyone help?

Why does my Windows Live Mail lock me out – regularly.

14. January 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: Windows Live Mail

My Windows Live Mail email usually opens and I may be able to use it satisfactorily for a few minutes. Then it may suddenly lock me out for some unknown reason and I am unable to open any emails or close the whole thing down. No action is possible. I would appreciate some suggestions to help put this right.

My internet link is OK and I can use the rest of my computer. the problem is confined to Windows Live Mail.

Synchonising Windows Live Email on 2 PCs

14. January 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: email provider, incoming email, incoming emails, unknowledgeable, Windows Live Mail

I now have 2 PCs, one running XP and the other Windows 7. My email provider is O2 and I have the same email account (Windows Live Mail) on both PCs. However, if I read a new incoming email on one PC it does not appear on the other PC. Is it possible to have all incoming emails automatically shown on both PCs? I am quite unknowledgeable about such matters so would appreciate it if any advice is a simple do this, do that etc etc. Many thanks for any help you can offer.
