• How can I stop spam into my Inbox to in windows live mail

  I can't configure my windows live mail to set up so I don't get junk e-mail or spam in my Inbox. When I try to get help everything seems set with hotmail and non-windows live

  (WLM) Unique Windows Live Mail spam settings are on the configuration screen"Security Options"

  In WLM 2011

  ALT F > Options > Security Options

  If not use account type Hotmail with the HTTP in WLM, the "Security Options" is the only possible configuration for pop3 accounts.  FYI - your pop3 account provider can provide junk e-mail filter settings in the web interface of the account.

  If you have a Hotmail type account program WLM installation and the junk e-mail filter in the previous Hotmail web interface takes on the local WLM junk e-mail filter. To set up a filter spam from Hotmail type account

  -Login with your Hotmail username/pw account at http://mail.live.com or hotmail.com

  -Click Options (upper-right) > more Options > filters and reports

  > Check 'Standard' or 'exclusive '.

  -Click Options (upper-right) > more Options > Safe and blocked senders

  > Configure each section (shippers, security mailing lists, the blocked sender) according to your specific preferences

  Note: A good amount of junk e-mail by spammers is sent with an addresess email sending false or often changed. Block a sender does not spam from appearing in your Inbox.  Caution when blocking a sender - test message properties to make sure you does not clog your e-mail address or an existing one comes into contact with address - since spammers can have forged headers (sender) with your or contact address.

• How can I install outlook express I DO NOT LIKE WINDOWS LIVE MAIL

  I don't like windows live mail hoe can install express look?

  On Friday, November 2, 2012 17:59:29 + 0000, Billie Skov says:

  I don't like windows live mail

  I'm not either. I think it's the worst email program I've ever seen.

  But there are a lot of other choices of e-mail programs, some for sale
  and some are free.

  can hoe I install express look?

  You can not. Outlook Express disappeared for several years. Windows
  XP was the last version of Windows to include it.

  You have chosen to install Windows Live Mail or is it entered
  preinstalled on your computer? If your computer came with Windows 7
  pre-installed and also Windows Live Mail, which is not because Windows 7
  came with it, it is because your computer manufacturer delivered it
  with what he sold you.

  Some people will tell you to use Windows Live Mail; others will say
  You can use Thunderbird; still others may have other recommendations.

  My advice is to ignore all of these recommendations. I personally use
  Microsoft Outlook for the mail and Forte Agent for groups of discussion, but you
  must try several and choose what you prefer, rather than
  your decision based on what I, or anyone else, like better (or even
  what Microsoft suggests).

• How can I permanently I change the default font in Windows Live Mail (Win 7)

  I just got this laptop that is running a newer version of Windows Live Mail I know.  The police of default e-mail is attached to Calibri 12 which is extremely low.  I want to its default value to Ariel 14.  Is there a way I can do this default font setting permanently?  I can't find anything under 'help' that helps me.

  Jill

  Try this.

  WLMail open

  Left-click to select your account

  then on the drop down menu - options - mail

  Compose tab

  Fonts seem to be listed there.

  Click font settings, to adapt to your needs,

  and see if this holds for emails send/dial

  If it works and is OK, it's similar on the tab [read] - fonts for reading emails.

• I can't find how to create a group list rom installed contacts window Live Mail contact.

  Recently installed Live mail and as far as I can see there is no place to create a group list to send more than one person at5 e-mail once.  I couldn't transfer my list of Outlook 2002 Group to live mail;

  Given that you wrote "recently installed Live mail...". ", I assume you meant Windows Live Mail 2011 .

  If not, please ignore the following.

  If Yes...
  Open WLM 2011 > at the bottom left, click the icon that represents Contacts

  

  at the top, click on category (category = group) > enter the name of the Group > select contacts who will be in the Group > click Save when done.

• How to create a link in my signature in Windows Live Mail for Windows 7?

  I used to use Outlook Express, and when I put a link in my signature in Outlook Express, it automatically creates a hyperlink so that my clients can easily access my site, but I am now using Windows Live Mail, and I was never able to find a way to create a link in my signature.

  I put my website address in my signature, but when I send a mail to answer, it will only turn it into a link if I click at the end of my website address and then press ENTER to go down as I begin a new paragraph. When I do that, it changes the address a link, but it's a real hassle of having to do every time I send a response. I tried to do the same thing in my signature, but it does not work.

  Did someone knows a way to make it a link in my signature?

  Under the Signature settings in the options, you can use a plain text signature that has no connection, or you can use the 'file' option to define an HTML file containing the code for a signature with a link.

  For example, save it as a sig.html notebook file (instead of the economy as a normality. txt file) and use it in the options.

  Roxanne
  example.com

  This will produce a signature that looks like this:

  Roxanne
  example.com

  and I have tried everything to try to SAVE my Email before it closes - to send it to air currents - everything!
  But at the end of the e-mail program Windows Live comes to close right up.
  I re-started...
