When sending email with attached pictures using Windows Live Mail, multiple messages are received by recipient instead of one. How do I stop multiple emails

Normal emails sent by Live Mail are sent correctly.  When I attached a picture, the receiver gets sometimes 10 copies of the message.  I don't know what to do to correct this.

How do I set up a new IMAP account in Windows Mail 2011 for a new outlook.com email address?

I use Windows Live Main 2011 on my windows-7 PC as the mail program through which I access all my email accounts. I have just created a new Outlook.com email address for myself but cannot find out how to add this new account to Windows Live Mail because I cannot find out what IMAP and SMPT values I should enter when configuring this new account.  Where do I find out this information for an Outlook.com email account?

Windows Live Mail: syncing read/unread and deleting messages across two computers using POP3

26. August 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , ,

I've WLM 2012 installed on two computers for accessing the same e-mail account using POP3. When I read an e-mail on one computer the message turns from bold type to normal type to indicate it's been read, but it remains in bold on the other computer until it's read on that machine. Also, when I delete either a read or unread message on one computer I also have to delete the message a second time on the other computer. Is there a way where what I do on one computer, under the POP3 protocol is mirrored on the other computer ? Does Skydrive provide this sort of functionality (I'm not particularly interested in storing files) ?

 

Many thanks

I'm running WLM under Windows 7 64-bit. I use custom storage folders with a primary header folder then dated sub folders. Today I transferred highlighted emails from my input folder to one of the dated sub folders. I found that all the transferred messages were exactly the same. There was also an identical message in the Primary header folder but when I deleted it all the messages in the sub folders, when I tried to open them, resulted in a 'Cannot be Found' message. I've tried the WLM repair function via the Control Panel but the result is still the same. I've not has this problem when I transfer single emails from the input folder to Storage but only when I select a group of emails & try to transfer them to a Storage folder.

How do I Share my WLM "Contacts" with a second WLM user?

I am setting up my new computer (Win7, plenty of memory, etc .. ) .  I am now setting up a second "account" with its own Windows Live Mail and would like to have my "contacts" shared with the second user.  I just haven't figured out where the file is and how to attach it to the second WLM . 

 

Thanks in advance ..........  Ron

How can I create a "secret" contact group apart from my contacts, which do not show to others when used in BCC box in Windows Live Mail

How can I create a "secret" contact group, i.e. a club list, apart from all my personal contacts, which do not show to others when used in BCC box in Windows Live Mail. Also, how then will I be able to lift and drop them as a block, rather than putting in one at a time? Many thanks

Windows Live Mail. Storage folders empty. Found emails, can’t import

15. August 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , ,

I'm helping out a family member. She is using Windows Live Mail and likely didn't shut it down correctly, resulting in the index blowing out. She managed to recover all her stored emails in the Storage Folders a time or two, but this last time they didn't come back.

 

What I have done so far:

Run a repair on Windows Live Mail.

Rebooted.

Uninstalled Windows Live Mail and reinstalled.

Attempted to restore

Attempted to import

 

I can find .eml files that appear to be the missing emails in storage folders (there are 3 file sets for storage folders, one I'm assuming for each time she failed to shut down properly.)

What I can't seem to do is import those emails back into Windows Live Mail.

 

The message I get is that there are either no emails to import or the files are in use by another program.

Yet, I know they are there, I can see the .eml files when I run a search of the hdd.

 

Help please?

 

(She's on Windows 7 Home Premium.)

 

thanks!

i received the following message is this a fake?

Windows Live Mail error message 0x800CCC79

13. August 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , ,
I've been using Windows Live Mail for YEARS, without ever getting this error code.

Also, I have done screen prints and posted them to messages and sent them without any problem.

Right now I'm getting the message and am UNABLE TO GET THE MESSAGE UP ON MY SCREEN, EVEN TO EXAMINE IT.

QUESTION #1 -- How can I display the email to examine it?

QUESTION # 2 -- How can I dianose the specific glitche in order to repair it?
