Often, when I'm compiling an e-mail message, a light touch to any key will delete everything!

Often, when I'm compiling an e-mail message, a light touch to any key will delete everything!  So frustrating and why this happens?

original title: automatically deleted text

If you touch CTRL-A you will highlight all characters in the message.  If you then press any character, it will replace what is highlighted by this character.  It is a plausible explanation for what you are experiencing.  Be careful if you type a capital A and use the SHIFT key CTRL pressed.

  • When I reply to an e-mail message, I need an option to have the active attachment to this email (as in redirect)...

    When I send an e-mail message, the attachment is automatically added to the new e-mail message. It is ok. However when I answer, the attachment does not come and sometimes I need to have the current attachment. So I need an option like "reply with attachment" or something like that...

    Thank you

    Re: Forwarding

    You have the possibility to transmit the received email 'inline' or as an 'attachment '.
    This can be set up here:
    'Tools' > 'Options' > "Composition" > tab "General".
    It is because you do not react to a specific e-mail - selection of information of another person to another person, who may be better sent as an attachment.

    Re: response
    In this case, you have the possibility:

    • include the email received in a response
    • Does not include the e-mail received in a response
    • include the selected part (citation) of the email received in response.

    A response implies an ongoing conversation and if the option to include the conversation is available.
    This is put in place here:
    "Tools" > "Account settings" > "Composition & addressing" for the e-mail account.

    But whether you choose to "automatically quote the original message when replying" or not, you can always highlight a section of text and then click 'Reply' to include only the selected section of the text.

    A response will also include all received attachments attached to the original email because you don't need to send the shippers own spare.

    Otherwise, you create a new message 'Write' and attach the original e-mail, so this isn't technically an answer - you do not use the 'Reply' button and these emails will not be strung. It is more difficult to see the continuity of the conversation.

  • The cursor moves randomly when you type the new e-mail message

    When I type an e-mail message in Windows Live Mail, the cursor will suddenly be at the beginning of my message, or maybe in the middle of a Word.  I don't know if I'm a touch that I'm not aware of, or if I have a fault with my keyboard.

    Hello lobelia 3206,.

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    Since you're on a laptop, I suppose that you have a right of trackpad under the keyboard. It may be that you hit the trackpad with your wrist or Palm when you type.

    Try to change the sensitivity of the mouse and see if that helps or if you have a setting to disable the trackpad when you type. I have

    Click Start, control panel and select slider and change your settings in there...

    I don't know where the settings would be for the Compaq Presario but you can always check with the manufacturer to get the correct settings for your laptop.

    I hope this helps.

  • When I try to send e-mail messages in Outlook Express 6, I get an error saying "an unknown error has occurred. "Error number: 0x800C0133.

    You may have a corrupt inbox.  Move all messages from the Inbox to another folder if you can.  Then move the inbox.dbx file in another directory in the message store directory (found via Tools |) Options | Advanced | Maintenance | Storage folder and files are hidden).  OE will create a new one so that should solve the problem.

    Alternatively, you can go to file | Identities and setup a new identity, which will give you a new message store) and then add your e-mail account.  If it works fine, you can use the file | Import | Messages to get the messages from the old identity.

    In the future see points 2 and 3 here: www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2 and make sure that you back up your messages frequently, because cases often get corrupted.

  • connection box appears when you try to download e-mail messages in Outlook Express

    I also have a BigPond email address.  I always check the emails it in case there is a I don't want to and if so I delete them, and then disconnect, and then close the BigPond homepage.  I'll then in Outlook Express to download e-mail and over the past two months, a log on window appears which shows my email address in the password box there is a cursor followed by points, which is of course my password.  I remove this item and type my password but the cursor goes back to the front of the points and so I can not download my mails, possible of course to send OK.  The box does not appear whenever I go to Outlook Express, is an intermittent problem, but when it occurs is very annoying.  I rang BigPond 3 times and the last time today said is a Microsoft problem.  I got this box appearing a couple of years ago, and somehow, we got rid of him.  BigPond say that I need to go to Microsoft and when I rang it said to go here to go to one of their technicians will cost, I didn't have to go through this time previous I had and got rid of him.  Any help please because it's driving crazy me.

    I suspect that its a BigPond intermittent disruption.  OE normally keeps track of the user name and password if you have set it to do, so if you get invited to do, its usually caused by a server connection problem.  Next time it happens, then since you can connect via webmail from their Web site, then check if you can access their messages from the web.  If so, then its likely a problem with OE, but if you can't get the web access at work is, then its BigPond (because they use the same access method).  Also make sure that you aren't access OE and on the web at the same time, as this would cause a collision and could be the problem.

    If its a question of OE, try to go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  Make sure you first you have e-mail scan from any product off antivirus (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  Then set up your account with the correct credentials and see if you can download your mail in this identity.  If it works fine, you can import the messages from the old identity (file |) Import | (Messages).

  • Windows Live Mail crashes when you try to send e-mail messages.

    When I open Windows Live Mail my emails and try to send to comcast.net, the Live Mail freezes up.  If I try to create a new message or reply to an email that I received, a new message then goes white opaque and Windows Live Mail stops.  It just gives me a "Windows Live Mail has stopped working" error message and stops.

    Has started arriving a week ago.

  • When I reply to an e-mail message I fail delivery of notice

    I started using Outlook on the web about 6 months for the company and when I use the web browser on the outlook.com ago (as opposed to the windows live mail in the start menu) I have a hard time, you REPLY to a message.  When I hit the REPLY, 9 times out of 10 it will appear in my inbox immediately with this message

    "This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.
    
    Delivery to the following recipients failed."
    
    to send the reply e-mail, I have to copy the entire e-mail and paste it into a new message and then it'll work fine.  Why is this happening and how do I fix it? Thank you.

  • Windows Live mail tells me I have an invalid password when trying to open the e-mail message in the client.

    I can sign into my e-mail account of Bellsouth/yahoo online through my browser, but Windows Live mail tells me I have an invalid password when trying to open the email in the WLM client.  I have rebuilt Windows Essentials, I made sure that the password is shorter than 16 characters.

    Windows Live Mail has worked until I suspected my e-mail account had been hacked, and I changed my password. Twice (on the 3 dozen attempts) WLM has requested a password, I entered into it, and it downloaded my email on the server, and then gave me an error saying that it could not complete the task and would not send/receive once again - it just keeps asking for the password.
