Using WLM 2012 and Windows 7 fully updated (new computer).

Whenever I receive an e-mail, such as all the newsletters I subscribe to, all that is shown in the Reading Pane is text and links instead of a formatted document that looks like a web page.  However, if I bring up a  Reply To or Forward window of that e-mail, all the formatting is correct.

Also there is an attachment ATTxxxx.html attachment.  If I click that the correctly formatted mail comes up in my Firefox browser.

This seems to be an extremely onerous way of having to read e-mail, as I'm used to Outlook Express and Vista's Windows Mail, where everything came up automatically in the Reading Pane.

There's also a line in the Options box along the lines of "Show images and external content sent from addresses in Safe Senders List" that I have checked I put a couple of these addresses in that Safe Senders List and then they seem to come through with a row of pictures at the top to open separately, but that distroyes the whole flow of the e-mail and it's just as unusable. 

I also have hundreds of saved e-mails that I've imported that are now in this state and I need to get them back as they were before in WM.

Do you have any suggestions?  I've spent hours going through different options without success.

The e-mail account is a POP3 account from my ISP, Time Warner (Roadrunner)

Thanks much.


Hi,

I have just started using Windows Live Mail 2012 with Windows 7, and generally very happy with it. One slight annoyance is what happens when I double click on the new mail notification icon (the one with the yellow envelope in front of the blue one). This takes me to the inbox of the default email account, even if the new mail has arrived in one of my other email accounts! When there is no new mail, double clicking this icon (blue envelope only) takes me to whatever folder/account I was last viewing (which makes sense). Ideally I would like the new mail notification icon to take me to the Quick views/Unread email folder. Is this possible?

Regards,

Adrian

I can print from anywhere in any program to any printer (I have two). But I cannot print messages from Windows Live Mail. I can print the messages if I open my mail in my ISP's web site. I have uninstalled and re-installed Windows Essentials but this makes no difference. Any answer I have seen on the forums do not deal with this question exactly. There is not even an option for this at the bottom of the page where it asks for Product, Topic, email topic etc. 
I need locate contacts on WLM? One answer said start in lower left to see icon. I not see any icon in lower left. (below folders)

Hi

 

I have Windows Live Mail installed on my PC and use it with my Hotmail Address and it also has my Calendar.

 

My wife used WLM on her PC for her Gmail address and also used the WLM Calendar.

 

Now my wife's PC has broken down and I have added her Gmail address to the WLM accounts on my PC, is there some way I can also add the

Calendar that was with the WLM on her PC?

 

Thanks

 

Daniel

 

 

My wlm account neither sends or receives email. It worked before and now it doesn't. It tells me there's a problem with my server address. I have never known what my server address is,but I never needed to because the account worked. I really don't see why I should go through all this convoluted ****. The emails I've needed to send are extremely urgent. If microsoft can't live up to it's name and insists on leaving me in the **** like this I'll use another account as default., After all,what good is an email account that doesn't do its job properly and makes it next to impossible to get help or contact. Big fail!
Windows Live Mail launches with a black background and very dark gray text.  This is also the background and text of the left navigation panel.  The message windows are black on white, but the rest of WLM is dark gray on black.  I also cannot detect a scroll slider on the left panel and text outside the message panels gets overlaid/overwritten.

When pasting the screenshot directly into WLM body WLM automatically reduces the screenshot size.

Is it possible to tell WLM not to reduce it?

The search feature in WLM 2011 doesn't return the correct email messages when I enter the 'before' and 'after' dates.  Please note, I entered the correct dates and mail box folder but the returned messages from the search do not match the dates.  e.g. The result of a search between the dates: 18/10/2012 and 09/10/2012 would return messages between 25/10/2012 (current date) and 20/10/2012 which is entirely wrong. 

 

I've tried running the Microsoft Fix It utility found here @ http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Troubleshoot-problems-with-Windows-Mail but it didn't find any error with Windows Live Mail search feature and Windows search in general.

 

I'd like to inform you that I'm running WLM 2011 on Windows 7 64 bit operating system.  This Microsoft article here @ http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969165 looks like it relates to my problem as it could be caused by a 64 bit search filter issue.  However, this article applies to version 3 of WLM which may be different to my one.  My WLM shows up as version 2011 with a certain build code.  The proposed resolution on this article requires some sort of reconfiguration of the registry which I'm reluctant to do at the moment as this article may not to apply to my case.

 

I'd welcome any suggestions about resolving this issue.
