How to reindex WIndows Mail

How to reindex Windows Mail?  The structure of Windows Mail files is different when played back via the Explorer with the program itself. Records that I renamed or deleted the last months within Windows mail are still visible and the items in deleted folders for example contain dozens of emails when played back through Explorer, even though it is empty when it is seen by mail.

I tried to export, but it matches the version exploring rather than the version of Mail and falls down so I try and do any archive.

I would like to clean it up so that "dead" emails aren't always in disk space, and so I have a little more confidence that a restore will work, they appear on the search results.

Try to compact and repair the database.

  • How to remove "Windows Mail"

    I have a Toshiba laptop and "Windows Live Mail" and "Windows Mail", how do I remove "Windows Mail" from my computer.

    I've been in the program Install & Remove Control Panel, but can not find all titles with "Windows Mail" to remove. ?

    Hello RichardShiel,

    Windows mail is installed with the Windows Vista operating system, and therefore cannot be uninstalled. Surprisingly enough, it cannot even be disabled via the Windows features turn on or off the option programs and features.

    However, if you have the version of Vista Ultimate (Please note that I edited this post like initially, I said Pro and Ultimate; it was incorrect, my apologies) you should be able to disable through Group Policy.

    1. press on the Windows and R key to bring up the menu run.

    2. in the Run menu type: gpedit.msc

    3. If you do not have gpedit on your version of Vista, you receive an error message. If you have gpedit on your machine to the Group Policy Editor is now displayed.

    4. once the Group Policy Editor is open look in the left pane and click the option for the Computer Configuration. A list will now be expanded.

    5. then add to the list under administrative templates.

    6 look down this list and develop, the Windows components option.

    7. look in the right pane and scroll down until you come to Windows Mail.

    8. double-click on that.

    9. you should now see two options. (a) turn off the function of communities and the b) disable the Windows Mail application.

    10. double-click on the option turn off Windows Mail to open the Properties window.

    11. in the Properties window, click the active radio button, and then click the OK button.

    12 Finally exit the properties and the Group Policy Editor.

    13. the next time you start your machine that Windows Mail should be disabled.

    As I said this should work if you have the Group Policy Editor.

    I have Windows Mail already implemented on the Dell XPS with Vista. We have added a second Netbook with Windows 7 on wireless network at home. How can I access the widows of the second PC Mail account? Thank you

    The solution mentioned by others you will only see
    new entrants on multiple computers.  It will allow you to see the
    messages sent from a computer to be seen on several computers.  In the order
    to do the latter, you would need to move to an IMAP or HTTP account rather
    as POP3.
     
    Note this time Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail require that their message
    store reside on a local hard drive, not on premises that are not accessible via the network
    drive.

  • How to stop windows mail spelling my signature every time that I have send a message.

    Hello

    I have a custom email signature I settled by default on my message options. Whenever I compose a message, the spelling check includes my signature. I need to spell check my actual post without going through the spelling of signature every time.

    Also, I can't insert any default signature message. There must be a limit to the number of characters, you are able to use. Is there a way around this problem as my message signature cut three quarters of the way through.

    Thank you very much

    I tried to send an email with several large photos attached and it can't send it I think because it is too big. now every time I open windows mail it will automatically start trying to send this message again. I disabled the options in the box in the send do not send, but he's still looking to and if I try to do anything it crashes windows mail and it no longer responds. is it possible to reset windows mail and stop trying to send this message? It doesn't let me delete it.
