• Message failed authentication in Windows Mail for Vista

  I get a popup in Windows Mail on Vista that says "authentication failed. Please check your user name and password of the account,"follow-up of the email address. I checked the connection information and it is correct. I can send and receive email with the account, but still the pop up keeps appearing. I can't figure how to get rid of this very annoying popup. I'd appreciate any help with this problem.
  

  Several people, including myself, have experienced this problem recently.  If 1and1 is your ISP, here is the solution.

  Access the utility Tray 1 & 1 EasyLogin.  Right click and then left click on "Application settings."

  In the box that opens, go down to 'Alert on the desktop' and on the left, click on the settings button.

  Remove the control box left of "Activate alert on the desktop for new mail."

  OK, OK to close, left click.

  Your problem should go away then.  It did for me.

• When I try to create a new e-mail in Windows Mail for Vista, the message box is delayed and slow to open.

  Hello, I have a laptop with Vista MS operating system and Windows Mail.  Since I got the computer, I noticed that when I go to create a new email, the new message box is delayed and slow to open.  And, often, once that I enter a contact in the line 'To', it also seems to be slow in filling.  No idea why this is happening.  The old OE always worked smoothly.  Thank you.

  original title: Windows Vista and Windows Mail

  Contacts are managed differently in Winmail in Vista and many can be what slows down things.  You can try to reduce them, and see if that has an effect any.

  See here for background information (www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm), although it seems that the link to contacts has been removed.  See here for information on contacts: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Managing-your-contacts

• Set up Windows Mail for Vista

  My Question is: How can I get rid of the windows mail Vista Preview pane when I open the mail program? I don't want any e-mail automatically opens in the preview pane when I receive mail.  I went in the 'options' and in the reading tab disabled everything to solve the problem, but without success. I followed the info on aid as well and no luck. I used to use Outlook express on my old system with XP-Home edition and it was very easy to implement to remove the preview pane. I can tell windows mail is very similar to outlook express and I would enjoy the use of the program, if I can get rid of this darn preview pane screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thank you in advance!

  It is not in the options, that it is in view.

• Can't send emails using Windows Mail on Vista SP2

  I am running Windows Mail on Vista SP2. I hv set up one account using POP with a supplier's existing PSI (not the one I use). Able to read and send messages. He stopped working for the send now option. Get updates warned miss the numeric identifiers and, finally, an error: the connection to the server has failed. Are subject: join my network on LinkedIn', account: ' ', server: 'smtp.iprimus.com.au', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 10060, error number: 0x800CCC0E. E-mail messages remain in the Outbox and Inbox update regularly.

  I'm not sure of what is a provider of 'hope', but if you try to send via an SMTP server that does belong not to the Internet provider to which you are connected, then it will be probably blocked.  Many vendors have a mechanism to overcome that, but you must check with the individual POP3 provider to determine the port numbers and other settings to enable the SMTP protocol work (this is to avoid spam).

  I don't know if this will help or not, but if you can send the same email as your Internet service provider and may not by another, then this is probably the reason.

  Make sure you also deleted you account, closed and reopened Winmail opener and then added it again (or add another copy of the same account) to ensure that something is not altered in these settings.

  If all the settings are correct, turn off e-mail scanning in your antivirus software. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

• What should be the port/security settings for Windows Mail with Vista - I think they changed?

  I had to reinstall Vista when my hard drive crashed, and Windows Mail does not work completely correctly. I think remember me an email from Microsoft told me to change the ports/security settings. Could someone tell me what they should be?

  A "error message indicating", what exactly? No error code or the relevant text?
   
  Make sure these settings match exactly.

• Windows Mail on Vista 64-bit.

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with Windows Mail in Vista 64-bit.

  I can read mail without any problems, but when I try to create an e-mail of the area where you type your message is transparent.

  Everything that was on the screen before opening the dialog box "Create mail" shows through the message box and when you try to type anything in there, nothing happens, for example, you don't see any text?

  I looked in the drop down menus to see if there is an option to change this, but I can't find one.

  Please, can anyone help?

  Thanks in advance.

  John.
