Access Windows Mail with Vista OS _

How can I access email Windows that is running on a Vista operating system from another computer, more specifically from my computer at home (this one) that is running Windows 7.

I was told MS that Windows 7 will not support Windows Mail, I prefer (although she was responsible here) and that only Windows Live Mail can be performed on-site.  Is this really the case?

Many users never bother with e-mail software such as Windows Mail, preferring to use webmail online.
The problem is when clicking on links in e-mail, on web pages, Windows launches the e-mail program default, which is Windows mail in Vista. There are only a few webmail providers who have developed a programme of assistance that will allow their webmail become the default of Windows.

Well Ok, why do I still need a Windows Mail account, in this case?  Other than this is the default mail program in Internet Explorer, and I use it for this.

  • I can't send e-mail messages using Windows Mail with Vista.

    Get an error message "connection to server failed..., 10060 socket error, error #0X800CCOE.»  Messages can be sent , however using the ability of web myqwest.com.  Messages can be received with the Windows Mail & myqwest.com.  Windows Mail is the Version 6.0.6000.16386.  Have been in contact with representatives of tech Qwest to convert the treatment of live.com to mail myqwest.com.

    fill in following error msg: failed to connect to the server. 'Test a Mar 01', account: 'mail.q.com', server: 'smtp.q.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 587, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 10060, error number: 0x800CCC0E

    Started having problems sending e-mail messages 3 days ago, so I first worked with Qwest representatives to change outgoing port from 25 to 587, account of "pop3.live.com" to "mail.q.com", etc.  Until messages have been sent and received successfully by using qwest and MS Mail.

    Ok. First look at these two links and see if your settings match exactly.

    Another thing that can cause this specific error is analysis even if she worked for years of e-mail messages.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

    Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email
    http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

    Note that for many AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck e-mail scanning when the option is available. This is the only way to be sure, analysis of e-mail is completely out of the image at 100%.

  • Why do I get multiple incoming messages in Windows Mail, with Vista Home Premium.

    About 4 weeks ago I started having 2 copies of each incoming e-mail.  I did a system restore to a month before that without change.  I unchecked "leave a copy on the server", who has worked, but now I've lost a few hundred emails that have been backed up on my ISP server and coronal mass ejections each email through OK, but did not stay on the server with the box unchecked.  I did a restore of the system from the original date and now I get incoming emails in triplicate.

    I do not see anywhere to disable "e-mail scanning" in my AV (Cox Security Suite) HELP program!

    Make sure that you do not have two copies of the account mail under Tools | Accounts since this is the usual reason in WinMail for having multiple copies of the same messages.  If this isn't the issue, you can try compacting and repairing the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  If this does not work, then you will need the possibility of antivirus software.  I uninstall, and then delete the email account, compact and repair the database and then add the account back again.  Then see if it works.  If so, get something less invasive such www.microsoft.com/security_essentials , then under settings, clear the file eml are analyzed.  See also www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for general information.

    See if that helps at all.

    I move the file from my old PC which took place with Vista on a new computer running with Win 10 where I have Windows Live Mail is installed.  When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties".  After studying this issue on the forums, a proposed solution was to reformat the drive in NTFS format, I did.  This does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?  Would it be OK in this case to ignore the message and copy the file without its properties?

  • Reinstalling Windows Mail in Vista

    I accepted the invitation of Microsoft to install the beta version of Office 2010 and wish I hadn't. The reasons don't matter. What is important is that when I uninstalled it, it took Windows Mail with it. I searched Microsoft download sites to find one for WM, but fails. I found a download for Windows Live Mail, but when I tried to install it, it says it was already installed. But when I click on the start menu, the icon for e-mail is gray. I really want it my mail from the rear window. How can I do this? When I bought my computer, it came not with a Vista installation disc.

    Windows Mail is part of Vista.

    How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    See you soon.

    I can read mail without any problems, but when I try to create an e-mail of the area where you type your message is transparent.

    Everything that was on the screen before opening the dialog box "Create mail" shows through the message box and when you try to type anything in there, nothing happens, for example, you don't see any text?

    I looked in the drop down menus to see if there is an option to change this, but I can't find one.

    Please, can anyone help?
