WLM no longer can access my Verizon POP account

22. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,
I can no longer access my Verizon account through WLM. WLM only downloads Verizon emails when I reboot my computer. Is this a corrupt registry file and if so is there a fix?

Export messages from WLM 2012 to Outlook 2013

22. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , ,

I have followed the suggested process to export mail to Exchange.

The messages seem to get exported OK but then I get a message

"Windows Live Mail has stopped working"

 

As far as I can see all the messages got transferred.

 

My OS is Windows8

 

Any thoughts?

WLM secrutiy warning and TIme out error Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0F

22. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,
First I would get TIme out errors Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0F , about 1-2 times a day but sooner or later the mail would get downloaded.  I changed the changed the POP /SMPT settings from POP.mail.yahoo.com to POP.sbcglobal.yahoo.com then WLM started re dowloading 5k yahoo emails, then it stopped and gave me this error.  What a mess, I have spent 3 hours on this already.

So far I have tried every suggestion i can find on the web and no luck.  So I decide I will just start using Outlook.com.  Well that too  worked for a week or so downloading emaild from several accounts and not it will not download gmail, SBCglogal email..... or others.  The directions are sketchy and unhelpful.  I am not even sure if I could get the same look and feel with outlook.com as WLM, such as each email account having folders under it like InBox, Sent....

I am not sure what to do,
SAD to say but I will have to go to Yahoo.com mail to find any email responses to this since I have the SBCglobal email is linked to my yahoo account, since I can't get WLM to work

Windows Live Mail Calendar and Contacts Stopped Syncing

20. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , ,
My wife and I have been using WLM for email and Calendar for a number of years.  We have a Laptop running Vista and a Desktop running Windows 7.  The We use this as an email client although we use Rogers Yahoo Email.  Both email accounts (Dianne and Andrew) are set up as POP3 and are functioning properly.  But the Calendar and Contacts which have been syncing between the 2 machines up until about 2 weeks ago are no longer doing so. When WLM is open and I sync on all email accounts there is no problem.  But when I press Sync Everything an non-specified error occurs and the Calendar and Contacts are not syncing either with the other computer or the Outlook.com site account

This happened in mid August as well and I logged in to our Outlook.Com site account and reset the sharing permissions to Co-Owner and that seemed to immediately solve the problem. 
 I have tried the changing the same setting a number of times this past two weeks and have not had any success.

I do not think that this is machine specific because we can make a new Calendar Entry on the laptop and it does not appear at Outlook.com nor on the Desktop. Same for the reverse.  A new entry in the Outlook.com Calendar does not update on either machine 

Any suggestions.
Thank you
Andrew



Where are my WLM Storage folders kept?

I know where is my WLM storage. When I installed WLM I changed the default location to the location of my choice.

Everything seems fine. For years now WLM starts and displays the folders and it contents properly.

Recently I wanted to do some operations on files in WLM storage using Windows Explorer and I get stumped.

Under Windows Explorer the folders structure under "Storage folders" is much different from the structure displayed under "Storage folder" in WLM.

Above are screenshots of both folders.

Not believing my eyes I've decided to change WLM storage location thinking that during copying files to new location the folders will be shown again. No luck.

In the new location under Windows Explorer the folders structure under "Storage folders"  is the same as it was in old location and does not reflect the structure displayed under "Storage folder" in WLM.

Hence my question:

How WLM knows what is the Storage folders structure and where those folders are physically located on my hard drive?

 

 Thanks,

WLM: what are those quotations marks for?

16. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,

Some of email messages have field From enclosed in quotation marks.

 Some of them are duplicates, some of them appear normal (no quotation marks) one day but the next day the same message will be enclosed in quotation marks.
What is the purpose of those marks? What are the rules creating them in the first place?

It is WLM verson independent. I am using WLM 2012 but the same problem was with the older WLM versions.

WLM how to set default to Rich text (html)

14. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,

In Options>Mail>Send tab there is option to set the format of sent mail.

In my case the option HTML is selected, but in spite of that each new meesage opens in plain text format.

Is that a bug?

How to fix it?

Error 0x80072EF3 in Windows Live Mail

11. October 2013 · 1 comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , ,
I have about 5 email addresses that I use this program for, all of them either hotmail or live addresses, and just one of them is having issues. Every time I open WLM, all of them download their new emails just fine except this one. It fails, every single time now for more than a week, with the following error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the (editedout) account.
Server Error: 0x80072EF3
Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x80072EF3

What gives? Why is it just this ONE email address that is giving WLM fits, and how in God's name do I fix it? I have searched everywhere I can think of on 3 different search engines and nothing - NOTHING - is giving me any help at all. This is my last hope. Please, help me fix this. This is my main email address we are talking about here, and if WLM can't retrieve messages for it then the program and is worse than useless to me. Thanks in advance.
