    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.

  • How to remove and reset the Contacts folder / files in Vista Windows Mail

    How can I delete the Contacts in Vista - and actually reset the folder so that windows treats the files ".contact" as - good contact and no text.

    Because what was going on, I decided to try to start from scratch - I just copied all the files in the folder of contacts to a archive and deleted all the files in the contacts folder.

    From Windows Mail - I am capable of was able to use the tool 'Add to contacts' and the Contact form (properties) dialog happens - but if I open the Contacts folder directly (Windows or Windows Mail 'button'), I get a window of the typical Explorer with a newlt created contact list (for example there are 6 in there now all created from Windows Mail) - if I try to open an existing contact - it opens in the Notepad - text - garbage.  (Same problem I had)

    I've been setting up with a Contacts folder corrupted since I bought my desktop with Vista in 2008 - I think I looked into the question of import then and there is no function of CSV to import the contacts (that I could find) - and / or the inport corrupted the file - so when I open a file of contacts I get the text of the file - it opens in Notepad - and not a Contact form.

    With more than 600 contacts in there, I didn't have to manually retype all data, but it's time to bite the bullet.

    Hello PaulJMoore,

    ·         Do you have just copied the contacts in archive and did not export them?

    ·         What is the extension of the contact files you copied?

    You should try to reset the contacts folder.

    1. in Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder C:\Users\(user name) \Contacts.

    2. right click on an empty space in the main pane of the middle of the window and click Customize this folder.

    3. under the type of folder do you want, click the arrow next to the model list drop-down list.

    4. click on Contacts to select.

    NOTE: Check apply also this template to all subfolders if you want to change all subfolders in the Contacts folder to the Contacts model as well.

    5. click on OK.

    The contacts created with Windows Vista are in the format of .vlc. When you try to open them to the archived location where you saved, he would not be able to access Windows Mail to open the contacts.

    First of all try to copy all the contacts in the Contacts folder on the \Contacts C:\Users\(user name folder location).

    If this does not work, try to import all the contacts that you have saved to the location that is archived using the import option from the Windows Messaging.

    You can read this article which will give you information on how to import contacts:

  • Recover Contacts and emails of crushed Vista/Windows mail by car

    I was using a laptop with Vista and Windows Mail.  The laptop is dead, but I was able to recover the hard disk and connect to another computer via the usb port.  The intermediate computer has XP and Outlook Express or Windows Mail options.  How can I recover my emails and contacts I used in Windows Mail?  In the past when I change computers I export and import the new email client.  Because I can't open Windows Mail, I don't have this option.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Any questions about WLM should be asked in the forum dedicated to www.windowslivehelp.com you can ask about contacts there also.

  • Why I can't make backups of my Vista Windows Mail email files?

    During the 3 years, when do backups, I just copied my "documents" folder in which I put my Windows Mail email folder. Never had a problem. Recently the file My last Email/Local Folders now refuses to copy. Explorer Windows try to copy it and at first it seems to work but while it starts at about 10 MB/sec it soon drops hyperbolically to zero, but never really gets there so everything hangs up. On 15 September, I made my last successful backup intact but since then, everything I tried failed. At first, I thought that files may not copy, because they are 'read only' files but of course this isn't. The files I copied successfully in my backups in September that all show an attribute "read only".

    I'm sure that this occurred shortly after a Windows Vista security 'upgrade', but after being in the security settings and change many of them I have no results.
    I recently had to use Internet Explorer for Google chrome and I don't have a gmail account if Microsoft & Google are not cohabiting in my computer. I ran into conflicts between IE and Chrome, especially when you try to print the email and web pages through our wifi HP network printer. Now my wife can not print at all. What is a part of the problem?
    Thanks in advance for any ideas.

    For the printer part, WinMail uses the print engine that it is uses, adjust if margins and other in Internet Explorer to print in WinMail.

    But the inability to copy the files suggest hard disk problems.  Try opening Windows Explorer, right click on the C drive and go to properties. Tools | Check out now and see if it finds problems.  You can also use the attempt to Windows Explorer to access the folders and messages to make sure there is no problem with access (try to copy directories message individually and perhaps you can distinguish a problem).  You can also try compacting and repairing the database of WinMail to ensure that it is not the question, but I doubt that this would be the case.

  • Where is the Out-of-Office function in Vista + Windows Mail

    I want to leave a message of the office, when I'm on vacation and don't know how to do this with Windows Vista Mail, please help

    If you do this, you must let your computer 24/7, be connected to the Internet and open your e-mail program. If you want to do this anyway, the link below will show you how do it. One thing I would say is that where it says to create a rule and change you it to check for all Messages, and that the rule for the people in your address book. Otherwise you will answer Spam as well and could end up in an infinite loop of rebounds.
     
    Most of the servers of ISPs Internet/Mail to offer this service which would be a better choice.

  • Vista - Windows Mail. copy and save messages

    I'm looking for backup my windows mail emails. I look in the C:\users\(user-name limes) \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Local files etc. but do not see the directories where the actual messages are stored only the Inbox, box send, sent, Deleted, drafts, and junk. Where are the directories for the actual messages. * E-mail address is removed from the privacy *

    Needless to say that the export and import functions do not work. They do not export on a disk or zip drive (who wants to export to the same drive that may crash!), but even when I do this last import cannot find the exported files.

    Since this is about the most important function in modern business that is emailing why there not a simple way to backup emails.

    Here's a tutorial for your question:

    NOTE: Your messages were exported to the location selected in step 1 and 6 above. You can save this file exported in something such as an DVD or USB key for save or use to transfer to another computer. If you cannot copy the file exported for any reason, then place the folder exported in a ZIP file first and try again.

  • How you software on Vista windows mail

    Computer took a hit of malwhere. And now it won't let me get in.keeps ask for password but still no go. How can I get rid of windows mail on vist and its beginning all over again?

    You cannot reinstall Vista share.  But the issue is the message store, and you can set up a new base of messages.  All you have to do is rename the parent directory of the message store and then WinMail will implement a new.  Navigate to the location of the message storage (C:\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows mail notes that it is hidden and you must go to control panel |) Folder options | Display and enable the display of the hidden files and folders) then go up a directory and rename the directory from Windows Mail to Windows Mail old.  Then create a new directory named Windows Mail so that it replaces the former and is completely empty.  You can then start WinMail and it will act as if it had never been run.  You can also just change the value of the root to be stored in the registry in another empty directory (for example c:\winmailstore\) and WinMail will then use this directory as the message store.  Once you do this and its no longer works, you can use the file | Import | Messages and point to the old directory, or you can simply drag and drop them into folders.

    See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for background on the Organization of message store and be wary of the antivirus, which leads to corruption - see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 .

    Also, before you reset everything, you might try to compact and repair the database and see if that fixes the problem (using www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).
