Why Thunderbird all in my Inbox dump if I check my email on my desktop using Windows Live Mail instead of this laptop?

I don't have a printer connected to this laptop, so I often send emails my PC computer in the basement that has a printer. I use Windows Live Mail on the basement PC and having my main email as a second e-mail address on this computer. Whenever I open my Thunderbird on this laptop after checking email on the basement PC, I find that every email in my Inbox disappeared. I would like to know how to avoid that this happens in the future. Thank you.

IMAP works best in your situation. Then you wouldn't have to worry about transfer of messages from one account to the other.

If you must wear the use of POPS, set your email clients, leave a copy on the server.

  • Why don't the 'Contacts' remain locked in "categories" I put them in? I use Windows Live Mail

    I use windows 7, Windows Live Mail, and I went through all worthwhile to create categories 'A', 'B' & "C." as I created each category I placed my 'Contacts' in each of them. I did until I got all Contacts "in the"category I wanted. "

    When I tried to send and email to all the contacts in category A. I wrote the email, went to the TO: button and clicked on it, and all three categories, with all my jumbled autour contacts have been identified.

    How can I fix this? Is it possible to lock the names in the category? This is getting ridiculous, instead of making things easier for us, Microsoft seems to do just the opposite.

  • Whenever I have customize a folder in Windows Live Mail, the changes are applied to all files and not only that I specified.

    When I started using Windows Live Mail, I am sure that everything was OK. I have 4 email addresses and when I started ' Customize I'm went to SEE, COLUMNS and adjusted to the order of the columns and to check the column or not. If I'm creating the Inbox of course I want 'FROM' but not 'To' as it is me. If I'm creating for "SENT" I want 'TO' but not 'FROM' for similar reasons. My problem is that when I put in a category, it seems to apply to all categories. What I am doing wrong?

  • WIndows Live Mail GONE / ALL email folders disappeared, no e-mail, project or removed!

    When I turned on my desk today, out of nowhere, ALL of my folders in Live Mail e-mail had disappeared completely, there is no emails in my project, sent and deleted folders, and I only had Inbox emails of yesterday and today.  I have about 30 cases for clients, and they are my lifeline, as are sent and drafts.  The Inbox started slowly loading of emails, but still no sign of missing files.

    When I went to restart my computer to try again, it is said now that "Live Mail cannot start the application was unable to open the direct mail message store and cannot locate the database of messages and files are missing, but are in a situation of"orphan"? ". And when I say OK or CANCEL, he said "WLM cannot start the application could not open the WLM message store.»  Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full"- which are filled for the record.

    Help!?  I need Live Mail return, WITH my files, and the Microsoft insured subscription I paid $150 for magically cannot stop with Live Mail?  What the heck!

    Please look here on your computer. If you use windows live mail (e-mail client) there should be data there.  If there is copy somewhere else and then run this to try and fix WLM

    The default location is C; \user\your name\app user data (can be invisible - later) \local\Microsoft\ windows live mail

    (app data are hidden you must go into Control Panel (depending on operating system) > folder options > view > display the hidden files and folders)

  • Windows Live Mail opens all I get is the "wheel of waiting".

    I've been using windows Live Mail since last August, but this week it stopped opening. The title box and the wheel turns, but that's all. I checked the Task Manager and it shows that this loading (stops around 8600 kb) and that's it. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times the same result. Under Vista Home Premium on an HP Pavilion dual Athlon 64. No reason for the sudden question?

    Thank you

    If you are using Windows Mail, then you can set message rules to divert two addresses to different folders.  My program WMIDs mimics the functionality of identities of ENP (see www.oehelp.com/WMIDs/) but it does NOT work with Windows Live Mail.  You can also try compacting and repairing the Windows Mail database to solve problems of parasites.  And beware of antivirus software interfere (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3) and for IE9 (see item 15 on the same page).

    If you continue to use Windows Live Mail, then you need to ask in the appropriate forum (http://www.windowslivehelp.com/product.aspx?productid=15), David said, but they are unlikely to solve the problem.

    It seems that there is a configuration issue with the Windows Live Mail account. Given that only, you experience this problem with a specific account, we suggest that you remove and reconfigure the account on Windows Live Mail.

  • I have windows live mail with two email accounts comcast and hotmail all of a sudden all of my comcast Inbox mail appears in the hotmail account,.

    whenever I check that my windows live mail all the emails sent to my accont comcast also are appearing in my Inbox hotmail also.

    I don't know why. the comcast account is my account by default, all emails sent to hotmail stay in hot mail, but all emasils sent to comcast account also appear

    in hotmail too. How can I stop this. I thried to delete windows live mail a reinstall it thought that it worked but still past. does anyone have the answers.

    I'm ready to dump hotmail and windows live.

    The most plausible explanation for this is that you asked to Hotmail to collect messages from your Comcast mailbox. Connect to your Inbox Hotmail, pointing to the Inbox in the left column, click the gear and select get one email from another account. If your Comcast account is mentioned on the page that opens, delete it.

    Windows Live Mail has its own forums dedicated to Windows Live Solution Center. Please address any other question you may have on one of the forums on the right side of this page.

  • Windows Live Mail - not all received emails are displayed in the Inbox

    I get emails in Windows Live mail. I do not see some of them in my Inbox but they shows in Quickview unread. When I read one, it does not appear in Quickview no read more (I expect) but I do not see any Inbox in Quickview and its still not in my Inbox. If I do a search in Live Mail it does not appear, but if I search using the search for Windows 7 it finds and displays the path as being in the Inbox. Any ideas?

    While in the Inbox: view | Current view. Make sure Show all Messages is checked and nothing else. If this does not resolve the problem, please ask the Windows Live Mail Forums
