• Issue of mail from Windows Live contacts

  I just bought a new computer with vista and windows mail. My old computer used XP and outlook express 6. In express, I had my contacts every day in the directory of Contacts main identity as well as several subdirectories like school, Viet Nam Vets, etc.. I do not send contacts to the group, but what I do is go through the appropriate directory, that I like to use, then select the names that I want to send. I find that windows mail does not appear to allow me to do. When I used to start an email in outlook express and go to 'From', all that would come up is my main identity Contacts (from which I could choose who I want to send the e-mail to), and I also want to send to people in another of subdirectories, I was going to click on the arrow down, and these directories would all belong to me access. Now in windows mail I tried to make the contacts in the group for my previous under directories, but when I go to 'To' on mail every contact I have seems to be a very long process to select the people I want to send to. How to achieve the same thing using windows mail?

  Geoff I Hall, take a look at the following links, I think they're what you're wanting to accomplish:

  Windows Live Mail:
  Grouping of Contacts in Windows Live

  Windows Mail:
  Create groups of contacts (mailing lists)
  Manage your contacts

  I would like to know if it works for you. Rami

• Duplicate E-mail from Windows Live contacts

  I created a few new contacts. When I wrote an email and sent to 3 contacts, one of the names of the contact appeared twice, so when I went to send the e-mail he wouldn't let me because the address of one was not in the right format. So, I deleted the contact and he added once again, and it's the same thing. What is the cause and how do I fix?

  Thank you!

• How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail on XP

  I searched for this answer for the last 2 hours.  All the answers are for Vista & Windows 7.   How to export my Windows Live Mail addresses so that I can use in Thunderbird?  I'm moving to Thunderbird because quick view is off & on display unread messages.  They watch for a few days, then stop broadcasting.  Then repeat for a few days, then stop again.  This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.
  But back to my original question.  How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.  When I click on the file to export and then export, there is nothing highlighted.   So, how can I get my contacts?  Or is there another way to do otherwise than through WLM >

  Thank you

  This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.

  There has been no update for WLMail 2009 since April 2010. Update do you think has affected your quick view?

  How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.

  Open the contacts window by clicking the address book at the foot of the folders pane. On the file menu, click export , and then select comma separated (CSV) values. If you don't see the menu bar, press ALT.

  Note that the last statement on the help page (Export contacts) is wrong: by dragging the window contacts contacts on the desktop doesn't create any kind of file. In version 12 and 15, this produces a vCard (.vcf) file for each contact, but not in the version 14 (WLMail) 2009.

  Windows Live Mail has its own support at the Windows Live Solution Centerforums. Please address any other question you may have on one of the forums on the right side of this page. You are probably asked to give your version of WLMail and Windows so that the answer may be more accurate. In WLMail to find your version of the software, a press on ALT - H. If it doesn't show you the version and the build number, press on escape to two times, and then Alt - F B.

• Removing addresses from Windows Live e-mail from another computer.

  I changed from Windows Mail to Windows Live Mail, when I upgraded to Windows 7. Thinking that I had 'lost' some emails on WM, I go to the House of a friend and typed in my Windows Mail e-mail address and password (same as WLM) and there I could see the emails that were sent to me. Now the problem is that copies of all my emails are sent to my friend's computer and I don't know how to remedy this situation. She no longer uses WM itself but all I want to do is remove my data on his computer. It may be simple, but I feel stupid not knowing how to proceed. Grateful for any help. Thank you.

  original title: DELETING E-MAIL FROM ANOTHER COMPUTER

  Open Windows Mail on his computer and go to tools | Accounts | Mail and delete your e-mail account.  Then his computer will get is more your emails.  Those who have downloaded can be copied from his computer and then transferred in Windows Live Mail.  See here for information on the location and organization of the Windows Mail message store: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm

• How can I import my data from Windows Mail in Windows Live Mail?

  I use a Vista and using Windows Mail that comes with it. I recently started using Windows Live Mail, imported my files that I created on Windows Mail to Windows Live mail?

  original title: Windows Live Mail

  I use a Vista and using Windows Mail that comes with it. I recently started using Windows Live Mail, imported my files that I created on Windows Mail to Windows Live mail?

  > I've recently started using Windows Live Mail...

  If you already used WLM, and you already have setup one account there, then on the left side, folder list, do scroll down to find the storage folder > under which is the imported folder. This is where all your WM mails are stored.

  In your new WLM account, create sub folders with names corresponding to mails in WM.

  You can then either use the drag and drop, or the Move To option, and messages from transfer of file imported back to your newly created in WLM subfolders.
