I am new to Windows 7 after using Windows XP for years. How to save an email from Windows Live Mail to an existing folder with content in my documents?

When I "Save as file" in the email and then select/open the file, I want to put it in the Documents, rather than keep the email name an existing document in the folder is highlighted and I get a message asking if I want to replace it. I don't want to replace anything, simply to add a copy of an e-mail to the existing content in the file. What I am doing wrong?

I can't reproduce this behavior.  If you save just under the ribs (without changing the file) it records correctly?

    It is relatively simple as you use and that you want to use WLM.

    You will need to copy a folder from where it is (the old installation) to another place where you know it will be (for example on your desktop)

    The folder is c:\users\your user name\app data (if it is not there, see the note below) \local\microsoft\

    At that point you will see a folder named oddly enough "windows live mail" copy on your desktop

    If you don't see the app data because it is invisible atm.  To make it visible, you need to go to your control panel > folder options > view > change to hidden folders (see figure)

    Once you have mail backed up on your desktop (or where ever) drag the folder from the desktop to the location for the new WLM (once again we C;-... just like above).  Just make sure that WLM does not run in time.  What wont be imported, it of passwords and rules.

    Accounts and data should now be in the new WLM when you open it.

  • Help, please! Windows Live mails in the sent folder, but not received by some clients

    Windows 7

    Windows Live Mail

    POP3

    Out going Server Port is set to 25

    Microsoft Security Essentials

    We had a problem where some - not all - of our messages are not received. When these messages are sent, they do not throw a notification saying that they cannot be delivered and they appear in the "sent" folder as usual.

    We are a company that sends quotes to potential customers, so we really need it is resolved as soon as POSSIBLE. We will send about 10 quotes per week and at least once a fortnight we will have someone complain that they have not received their e-mail while the others will be fine.

    The emails that we send have attachments so sometimes fall into undesirable people, but sometimes they are not either and we must resort to getting a second e-mail address to the sent message.

    If anyone can help me with this very frustrating problem, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you

    Thanks for your replies, but I have now solved the problem by changing the port from 25 to 465 number.

  • You bird used on mac; now use it on pc. How can I move emails from mac to pc (windows 8)?

    I had to completely abandon my macbook pro and am now using a computer laptop windows 8 instead. About 7 years of emails are locked in a time machine backup, I performed on the MBP, before becoming completely unusable. I've already started using you bird on my laptop, so how can I transfer my emails from the external hard drive to the Mac format on my pc? I use Mac Drive to be able to see the contents of the hard drive.

    So that you don't overwrite the current profile, I'd say you create a new profile using the Profile Manager and create a Profile Manager shortcut on your desktop. Then, you can choose to open the profile desired to see old messages.

    Then locate the profile on the mac disk folder.

    Copy the contents of the profile folder and paste, replace the default entries in the new profile.

    How to access Profile Manager:

    I can't solve the problem to import mail from the export file.

    But I try to set up a new IMAP email account in the old computer and copy mail in the new e-mail account.

    Configure the IMAP email account in the new computer, then copy mail to e-mail records. Of course, after this work, I deleted the IMAP account.

  • How are updates to Windows Live Mail generated?

    I downloaded Windows Live Mail shortly before I upgraded to Windows 7.  This has worked like a charm and copied on everything from Windows Mail.
    Now I wonder how updates are handled.   My Windows Update is configured to do the Windows updates only.  If there is an update for Windows Live Mail, I will get it with this setting?
    I don't want to change my settings, if I can avoid it because I not updated from Microsoft products, I do not use.
    Thank you.

    If you are using Win7, Microsoft Update is your source of default update. As long as give me updates in the same way I receive important recommended updates is enabled, you will be offered updates for Windows Live Mail Security and others installed Windows Live applications.

    If a version update of Windows Live Mail or any other installation Windows Live application is available, you will need to update manually via http://download.live.com/ or live.com application-specific page.

  • Installed Windows 7 and windows live mail, how can I import my emails (.dbx files) of Outlook Express 6 in XP.___Jackson

    I tried everything, I use import in windows live, but the messages do not appear in the additional email account. Changed all Office win7 .dbx files, they seem to be important but do not appear in the email client. I tried everything, and read all that, short of ideas.
    Any help, greatly appreciated.

    Jackson9

    Thanks for the help, finally understand it a day or two ago, it is important in a storage folder, it WILL NOT put it in the mail client, you have to find the storage folder. who is buried deep (C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Storage Folders\Imported Folder\Local folder) in the C drive, and then copy and paste in the files, one folder by one. BTW, the link refers to the import of Vista, Win7 not. The process does not work in Win7
