Rename the address of windows live mail.

I mainly use this e-mail address for businesses and would like to keep my emails and contacts. However, I would like to change the name. Is this possible? If so could you please tell me how to do?

Perhaps you should consider an alias.

    Hi Doug MacDonald.

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. What web browser are you using to print Web pages?

    If you use Internet explorer, then change the margin settings to the title of the page setup in the file menu and check if that helps.

  • After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

    After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

    wlmail.fol is a tiny text giving the name of the folder. The exported messages will have filenames like 00D13E83 - 000025DF.eml. If you don't see all of the files like this, your export probably did not work properly.

    For a successful export, follow these directions:

    1. Set Windows Live Mail to work offline before starting.
    2. Create a temporary folder on your desktop * to contain the exported messages.
    3. In the Export Wizard, select the temporary folder, and then select all the folders.* *
    4. When it is complete, check that the number of files in each folder to the temporary folder is one more than the number of messages in the corresponding folder of WLMail.
    5. Copy the temporary file to its final destination.
      If you use a reader not NTFS to do this, you will see a warning that certain file properties will not be copied files. This can be ignored.

    * Windows Live Mail do not work with files that are not on a local drive, as opposed to an external or network drive. This is avoided by using the office as a temporary folder location. 
    * If you want to export the files sampled only, select each of them containing messages. Subfolders are not automatically selected by default.

  • The use of Windows Live Mail without loggin

    I have a Windows Live account that was created on a tablet of Microsoft Surface running Windows 8.1.  When I access this account of my cpu Dell running Windows 7, I can access my account without having to log in.  I would like to have the security of having to connect, so has any who experienced this and have a solution?

    Hi Mike,.

    Please keep us updated.

    What do you mean when you say "sign in the icon is always displayed on the right side of the toolbar?

    I would be grateful if you could provide us with a screenshot of this issue.

    Note: To protect your privacy, I suggest you to remove any email address before posting the photo.

    The steps I have provided previous works if you use a web browser to connect to your emails. Windows Live Mail is an email client that requires your password to be added during Setup. This service can be set to disconnect when you quit the program

    If your computer is shared, a work-around for you would be to create a new user account and this secured with a password. This only will allow you to access your emails.

  • Where can I get help online with the help of Windows Live Mail?

    original title:. Windows Live Mail

    I've recently updated to Windows Live Mail. There is no help or Tools tab and I can't understand how to add a note/signature to my posts

    There's a Signatures tab on the program options sheet.

    Program options have been well hidden in 2011 WLMail. There are several ways to access:
    • Click the indefinable button to the left of the home tab. In the menu that opens, select Options , and then click mail.
    • Click the indefinable button to the left of the Home tab. In the menu that opens, select Options. Click Mail , and then select Add to the Quick Access toolbar (QAT). This will put a button for one click access to the sheet of options on the toolbar for QUICK access in the upper left of the window. Go over it; It's called Mail.
    • Use the quick access keys: press Alt, then F O Mr. or, if you did (2), press Alt, then n if the mail button is the n th from left to right on the QUICK access bar.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Ctrl-Shift-O for Options.

    Hello

    Yes sorry for the confusion, I used OE now on Windows live mail

    I was thinking about the error - with her referring to a "incorrect password", which I was 100% sure is the right.  (As well as all the settings again 100% correct that I compare with laptop on the desktop).

    I decided to log in my account of talktalk, which manages my phone, broadband etc and change my password by e-mail. Just to see if that would work.

    For some reason, it worked and I got e-mails from talktalk in windows live!  I did the same thing for my 2nd talktalk email address and my 3rd & last and it worked. !!

    I just don't understand not, as mentioned, all my p/Word & settings were correct.    It looks like I can well have solved the problems.

    Thanks again for your help, the setting of the pointingme in the direction of windows essentials, I downloaded, without your advice I would still look to the 'Mail' to add that these e-mail addresses of talktalk in windows live!
