• Need to import contacts and messages saved from a Windows Mail email account to another

  Recently changed ISPS but currently have two active accounts.  I would like to import/transfer saved messages and folders, and all contacts from the old account to the new account before the cancellation of the old account.  Both are configured through Windows mail.

  In Windows Mail, messages, folders, and contacts are not related to any specific email account, so remove your old account won't affect.  To check that, I just removed all my Windows Mail accounts on a Windows Vista-based computer that I use for testing.  Messages, folders, and contacts are always there.

  To be safe, you could back up the Windows Mail storage folder before deleting an account.

  Windows Live Mail works differently and requires copy/move messages before deleting an account. Boulder computer Maven

• Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail

  Is it possible to have too many Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail installed on a Dell Vista computer?  I have Windows Mail to a business e-mail and want to download Windows Live Mail for personal use.  When I go tohttp://explore.live.com/windows-live-mail it does give me an option to upgrade that I assume will be completely removed from my Windows Mail program.  Is is possible to download the Live Mail without remove/upgrade the small Windows Mail?

  Windows Live Mail can run along the coast of WinMail without problem.

  Windows Live Mail (presentation, features & download)
  http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

  If this download offers a upgrade, check in Control Panel | Add/Remove programs and look for Windows Live Essentials. Perhaps it is already installed and you are not aware.

  Download and set up WLMail will not remove WinMail or its content. It may become the default program and it can import your messages and contacts, but WinMail is not assigned the case. All messages or imported files can be deleted if desired.

• Problem with Windows Mail on Satellite L350-145

  Establishment of a L350-145, I met a problem to start Windows Mail.
  At first, I thought that the problem could have been due to a large Import OE, or an interaction with my AV (Kaspersky) or software firewall (Comodo).

  However, having disabled from this other software, then by removing existing user Windows Mail files and finally have restored the system to the box start in HARD drive recovery files, I'm still having the problem, it's...

  If I do a deed of record (for example, creating or deleting a folder), the list of records not updated until I exit and restart the Windows Mail application. Similarly, if I empty the deleted items folder that contains a folder deleted the content of deleted items not updated until I exit and restart the application.

  Because this behavior is allowing me to perform actions on files that have already been made, I fear this could eventually lead to a corruption of file / data mean. And since I can reproduce this problem on a freshly recovered system * before * any operation others actions and installs, I'd be surprised to see that no one he met.

  My conclusion is that there is a problem with the distribution of Toshiba for this laptop. The file name for the collection was 06491XSP.swm.

  Try to update Windows Mail and see how it goes.

  I think that its been via WindowsUpdate.

  Otherwise, try the free (and big!) Mozilla Thunderbird

• How can I get Vista "Windows Mail" to check mail using my connection local (LAN) internet?

  How can I get Vista "Windows Mail" to check mail using my connection local (LAN) internet?

  It allows only wants to "connect" using dial-up, wireless or wired ISP (type PPP) requiring a UID and password, of which none seem to allow me to select a LAN (ISP) simple (without a password).

  I know that the Ethernet connection works Ok, because I can use it with a standard Web browser; only the mail tool can't seem to see or use.

  Whenever I tell the Windows Mail email 'Send and receive', he wants to 'connect' for remote access or one of his three choices (listed above and direct exclusion of any connection to the local network).  It works with remote access, so once I have spend that I should be Ok. but I can't make it work directly.

  Help.

  In Windows Mail, go to select Tools, accounts, your account email, properties, connection.  It shows for the connection?  You
  should leave this setting not selected, in which case Windows Mail will use the IE connection uses.
   
  In addition, under Tools, Options, connection, the first checkbox must be checked, and the second box unchecked.
   
  If everything which withdraws, but you still have the problem, the account may be damaged.  Remove account, restart Windows Mail,.
  then recreate the account.

• Windows Mail is no longer mail

  From: yahoodan

  Using windows mail for more than a year on the same computer and now I can no longer send emails. I always receive.

  This is the message I get.

  Your server suddenly put an end to the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

  Subject 'test '.
  Server: 'smtp.att.yahoo.com '.
  Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x800CCC0F
  Protocol: SMTP
  Port: 465
  Secure (SSL): Yes

  With the help of a care antivirus
  Have had 3 sessions of troubleshooting with AT & T and they tell me now that there is a problem with my windows mail. I downloaded windows live mail to see if I could use it instead, and he's done the same thing. I did system restore to the day before I started to have problems, but that no longer works.

  From: Gary van

  This problem is due to a recent update of OneCare. To resolve this issue in Windows Mail: click on tools, Options, security, digital IDs. On the personal tab, you will see a digital ID. Select it and click Remove.
  Restart Windows Mail and try to send.

• Windows Mail stop whenever I click on a particular message

  I have an email that does not have a virus in my Inbox, and whenever I click on the message it causes Windows Mail to close. I was able to receive the message in Outlook without any problem.

  Windows Mail can open other emails?  If so, delete and lose the questionable E-mail as you saved it elsewhere.  You can try to delete mode safe if you are unable to do it in Normal Mode.

  Some other suggestions are mentioned in this thread, the simplest being to define Windows Mail on Offline (file / work offline) and then try to remove.

  Windows Mail blocks when you try to open 1 email. Cannot delete since crashes when I have the email matches.

• Sending mail using Windows Mail

  When I try to send a message using Windows Mail, it lists the tasks at hand and it says the message is sent, but freezes then on send a message in sent items folder and the message remains in my Outbox. Is that what it means that the message is always sent to the recipient or not?

• How to remove 'hidden' contacts that do not appear in my contact list in Windows Mail?

  I have a contact in mail. I guess that it was put there by a few emails I inadvertently opened. Anyway when I try to fill in the "to" box on a message that I normally get an AutoComplete list, I put in the first letter of the name, if there are several names starting with the same letter. Now, when I start typing a name with the letter 'L', instead of the 4 names in my contact list that start with 'L', I get the full name of a spammer, let's call him "loser at lumphead dot com. When I went to my list of contacts to remove this stupid I couldn't find this address! So I have 3 questions. Where Mail did in fact raise the file which has the coordinates? How an address to get into the system like that and stand out of the list of contacts? Most important: how to remove a contact 'hidden' like that?

  Thank you for your quick response.
  No, Shawns response suggested to go to the C:\users\myname\contacts file and delete it from there. I had tried before when I tried to locate the list of contacts somewhere outside Mail (sorry I forgot to mention that). But the contacts Vista file did not show this 'hidden contact' either. But further down the page, I found an answer to a similar problem. Gary van in reply to "re: delete contacts autocomplété" gave this link.

  http://www.Winhelponline.com/articles/264/1/utility-to-clear-recently-used-email-addresses-in-Windows-mail.html

  This leads to a file called winmailmru.zip. This tool allowed me to bring up a window showing ALL the contacts which it previously 'hidden', with options to remove them. I selected and deleted. Problem solved.
   
  But I still wonder: where was hiding the contact "hidden"? If it wasn't not in Contacts of Vista directory where Mail was from?  How this winmailmru.exe utility it found? It is also strange that the contact in question seems to have the ability to bypass the selection popup box that shows generally all other contacts beginning with the letter typed and force his way into the 'To' box, excluding the possibility of chooseing another contact. I am happy that my immediate problem is solved, but I wonder if the ability of a person sending a mail to 'hide' a normal contact and overide process in Mail is a security problem or just a nuisence? Anyway, thanks again for putting me on the path to the solution.

• How contact obtained in the mailing list, but no contact list so it can be removed

  How room sexy chick get in the contact list send and how to remove them from the contact list send when not on the list of regular contacts

  This also happened to me with the House of hot chick and other similar names somehow appearing in my Hotmail drop-down 'To' list of contacts when you compose a new message. The names do not appear in the list of regular contacts that you get when you click on Contacts. If you can not select and remove contacts from the scam. I need to know how to remove these offensive contacts. They can get in the list by accidentally open some spam messages when you try to remove them.

  You have provided your e-mail program, so I can tell you to ask the experts of Hotmail Hotmail Forum. Never use Hotmail, I wouldn't have a clue.

• How to remove my email contacts that I no longer use in windows mail?

  Original title:

  Windows Mail

  I try to find how to remove my email contacts that I no longer use in windows mail.  Is there a way to do it, and how you can do it.  I tried but the minute I start typing anything in the line it brings up all these old email addresses I don't want anymore.

  Can I assume that you have turned off contacts that appears when you start typing the address? WinMail only remembers 29 semi-automatic recipients and you should remove those deceased, or all.
