    I have been using Windows Mail with 2 AOL accounts.  Recently, messages have been stuck in the Outbox with the following error message - error 10060 Socket error 0X800CCOE. I have @ 587 SMTP and POP3 @ 110.  Server Info: incoming mail: pop.aol.com; Outgoing:SMTP.AOL.com.  It seems to be an intermittent problem.  Please notify.  Thank you!

    Ok. the fact that this is another error message appears:
    Account: 'staff', server: 'pop.aol.com', Protocol: POP3, server response: '-ERR internal server error ', Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Server error: 0x800CCC90, error number: 0x800CCC92

    Thank you!

    Here is the link showing how to set up AOL in Windows Mail. The link called Outlook Express. It's okay, Windows Mail uses the same settings as Outlook Express.

    Here you can compare those who have what you entered. You the incoming server is not the same as the link.

    Hi Zena.

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community. Enjoy the detailed explanation of the issue.

    Are you using a Microsoft or a local account to connect to the computer?

    Method 1: I suggest you run the troubleshooter App from the link and if it helps.

    http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=268423

    Method 2: I suggest that you remove mail, Outlook and Live accounts and re - sync the two. If you use a Microsoft account so it would not be possible to remove it from the Mail app like that defined a default in such a case, you can only delete the second account and Resync. Check if the problem persists.

    Method 3: Check out the link and follow the methods 'update your app' and also 'license app Sync' of the article.

  • . I have Windows Vista Home Premium. When I try to play a video file that is attached to my Windows Mail, playing audio but the video is not displayed on the screen.

    Because video (photo) is not shown there is no window to control me, IE; delete, stop. I have to wait until the audio stop. I can even click on another email and the audion continues until it stops on its own. Very frustrating.

    I've recently updated to IE9 and this problem started. I can see the other attachments, photos, etc., but must double-click on the icon of attachment (paperclip) displayed next to the email listed. Attachment icon does not appear with the body of the message. There is also a change from my old e-mail program used before you download IE9. I think I liked much better IE8!

    Hi JeanneChancellor,

    I was using xp rpo with outlook express.  Now upgraded to windows 7, how can I MOVE ALL MY EMAIL in WINDOWS mail

    Hi lapin21,

    Please use the forum for answers,

    Windows Mail is not available in Windows 7, you want to reinstall Windows XP.  You will need to back up data before you reinstall.  Best way to do is upgrade Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail and export your data to another drive.

    Switch to Windows 7 FAQ

    http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/Windows7/pages/moving-to-Windows-7-FAQ.aspx

    Switch to Windows 7

    http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/Windows7/archive/2009/09/24/moving-to-Windows-7.aspx

    Your Windows Mail data will be archived for the upgrade to Win7.

    That said, note that Win7 does not include all default email Client

    (e.g., Windows Mail;) (Windows Live Mail).

    If you install Windows Live Mail in Win7, I'd recommend switching

    for Windows Live Mail Vista first to ease the transition.

    If you purchase and install Outlook 2007 in Win7, I would recommend

    install Vista now and then export your data from Windows Mail to

    Outlook 2007 before the upgrade. If you install only Outlook in Win7, you

    will NOT be able to migrate archived data from Windows Mail in Outlook.

  • Reinstalling Windows Mail Contact List

    I had to reinstall my whole computer, because it crashed with an update of Windows 'stuck '.  I have my Windows Mail contact list saved on my C drive, and also have a CD of it.  I tried to import the list, but I can't make him - how can I put my contacts back in Windows Mail without having to re - type the entire list?  Thanks for any help

    I've never had the pleasure, it's just a JOKE. Assuming that you have saved the file containing the list of contacts, move it from the CD to the desktop. Right click on the folder. Properties and make sure it is not marked read-only and then try to import from there.

  • starting yesterday windows mail doesn't send mail and deleted emails are not going in the folder to delete first

    deleted emails disappear just - I checked the settings and they are not configured to automatically remove. When I try to send an e-mail, as they go to the Outbox and windows mail will not send not and gives all the details in the window box, its just empty. When you return to the Outbox of the body of the e-mail message was gone.

    You can have an email stuck, even if you don't see it.

  • Importer e-mail and addresses from Windows Mail in windows.old to Outlook 2007 in the new Windows 7

    Installed Windows 7 on a laptop last night.
    Old system: Vista & Windows Mail
    New system: Windows 7 Ultimate (64) & Outlook 2007

    Prior to installation, we have saved copies of records of e-mail and address books for the two users on a disk partition.  These same files are also still available in windows.old.

    Import in Outlook 2007 feature, I cannot select a directory where the old files/email address. He just made a kind of research and can't find anything.
    I wish that prospects to find them and convert a PST file but can't seem to make it work. I tied each combination in the functionality of Outlook 'import' and even tried to drag the old emails in the outlook Inbox (just create a new email with the .eml attachment file)

    What should I install Windows mail, that he could recognize the old addresses / and then inport to Outlook?  Maybe then Outlook will look for them in their actual location?

    A little frustrated...

    How did your question related to Windows Update, Al?

    You cannot import data from Windows Mail directly in Outlook. See...

    How TO migrate [Windows mail] Outlook (when you have only the message store files)
       http://www.HOWTO-Outlook.com/HOWTO/migratefromoewlm.htm#FILES_ONLY

    In your case, you must first download/install Windows LIVE Mail and then import data from Windows Mail in this e-mail client. After that, you can EXPORT data from Windows LIVE Mail to Outlook (compared to import the data into Outlook).

    Yes, this is all very confusing. Adding to the confusion:

    1. you must set Windows LIVE Mail as your default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) item Set Program Access and computer by default in Win7 before any function send to or MailTo will become available.

    2. you will find general support for all e-mail Win7 Clients in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/threads

    3. you will find support for Windows Live Mail in this public newsgroup:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?DG=Microsoft.public.Windows.live.mail.desktop

    4. you will find support for Outlook in these forums as well as in this public newsgroup:

  • fall of Internet connection out when opening windows mail

    Windows vista (home) email box as wireless b/band disconnection on the Outbox of windows mail.reconnect, sendfrom access and reconnect?     mail via fbook and messenger, no problem.

    In Windows Mail, go to select Tools, accounts, your account email, properties, connection.
    It shows for the connection?
    You should leave this setting not selected, in this case Windows Mail will use any connection IE uses.
     
    In addition, under Tools, Options, connection, the first box must be checked.
    and the second box unchecked.
     
    If everything which withdraws, but you still have the problem, the account may be damaged.
    Remove account, restart Windows Mail, and then recreate the account.

    Error message that appears when I try to access my mail. Windows Mail cannot be started. Your computer may be out of memory or the disk is full. I have never seen this. My office is 2 years old and I have a lot of memory and space drive.

    Hi breddy1,

    A. when it last work very well?

    I suggest the following methods.

    Method 1

    Disable the antivirus and check if you are able to use windows mail. If it works then make sure that your antivirus or other security program have their email options off scan.

    Run a virus scan online on your computer.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Method 2

    Rename the Windows Mail folder and create a new folder

    1. Exit Windows Mail.
    2. Find the Windows Mail folder. See "step 1: search for the message store" of method 1 for more information on the search for this file.
    3. Right click the Windows Mail folder and then click Rename.
    4. Add old at the end of the name of the folder so that the folder is now named Windows Mailold.
    5. Then, create a new windows Messaging folder and copy the contents of the old folder to the new.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-problems-with-Windows-Mail

    Method 3

    I suggest that you perform a scan of the file system [SFC] checker on the computer, this replaces the corrupt system files with system Version of Windows on the computer files, follow these steps to perform a scan:

    I suggest to empty the temp folder and later, follow these steps:

    Click Start > type % temp % in the start search box > press on enter > delete everything present in the temp folder.

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

    2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    3. at the command calls, the following line and press ENTER: sfc/scannow

    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

  • Subfolders from Windows mail to Windows Live mail are not imported

    Loss of e-mail when you import e-mails from Windows Vista to Windows 7

    I have a lot of email (more than 5000 files with 300 000 emails) in Windows Mail in Vista.

    I recently bought the new laptop with Windows 7.

    When I tried to import old email into the new machine with Windows Mail of liver, most of the emails in subfolders is lost.

    Only those e-mails in the Inbox and the old sent box, etc., may be imported.

    Please advise how can cope with this problem.

    Hi John Chan Sze Chun,.

    Windows Mail records records of discussion groups and settings of your email account, in its own storage folder. By default, this folder is placed on drive C, your user name in the directory AppData\Local\Microsoft\ Windows Mail.

    In vista and windows 7, the path is C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows mail storage folder.

    Try a manual import in Windows Live Mail and check if that helps:

    a. open Windows Live Mail.

    b. in Windows Live Mail, click file on the menu bar, import and Messages.
