Windows 7 Live Mail Exchange... file extension?

Is there a setting for Windows 7 to prevent it from changing a file extention (attachments), for example, the file name "boxes... xls '... Windows XP and Vista will leave the only extension and allow you to open with Excel.  When sent to Windows 7 Live Mail, it chages the extension of file 'boxes... '. "xls" to "boxes._xls" and not allowing it to be open.  I can save this file and then rename it and it opens fine...?

    The Windows Office live mail does support the rules of message for mailboxes IMAP mailbox?
    If not, then someone can advise on alternative e-mail client which takes support the feature. I know Thunderbird that supports this feature, but Thunderbird doesn't have the feature of autofill dropdown as gmail address (where it lists all e-mail addresses containing the alphabets typed in any part of the identification of email).

  • I can't open .eml in windows live mail. prohibited file type?

    I get mail from a conact and I can't open attachments. When I try, I get a message that it's a "forbidden .eml file Type" and may not open. I have Windows 7 amd and the 64 bit OS. What is the solution please?

    There is an option in the Security of the security options of reading worksheet tab do not allow the opening or the recording attached that may contain a virus. This option can cause the symptoms you see.

    If you had posted in the forum dedicated to Windows Live Mail as Brian suggested that you do, you would have been asked to give your version of the software. How do I access the security options varies from one version to another. In WLMail to find one that you are using, a press on ALT - H. If it doesn't show you the version and the build number, press on escape to two times, and then Alt - F B.

  • What is the file path for Windows Live Mail storage files in Win7?

    I had to save my old C drive and reinstall the OS and now I can't find all my e-mail folders that were under the "Storage folders" section of WLM.  Please tell us where the program records those so I can copy this folder.

    Also, where are the stored so WLM Contacts I can do the same thing for that.

    WLM is delivered with a default section called "storage folders".  They are different from where the Inbox stores the messages, you can check in the section Options/Advanced Options / Maint.

    This is the folder called storage folders is, too.

    Still looking for the answer to where the contacts are stored.

    Which varies according to the version of the program. In the last (WLMail 2011), they are in a database in the folder called C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live\Contacts\Default, where C:\ is the drive operating system. You won't be able to make use of all other folders next default one.

    Questions about contacts in Windows Live Mail its place in this forum. You must give your version of the software when you post it. In WLMail to find, has press on ALT - H. If that does not show you the version and number generation, press escape twice, then press Alt - F B.

  • Migrate emails from Outlook 2003 to Windows 7 Live Mail - without using OE6

    I upgraded that computer from Vista to Windows 7 64 bit. I have decided to switch from Outlook 2003 to Windows Live Mail, but cannot find a way to export my old mails from Outlook to WinMail. I read it online through Outlook Express 6 as an intermediary, but when I tried, it turns out that you can not install OE6 on a 64-bit computer.

    So I am at a loss. How can I move my old mails from Outlook 2003 to WinMail?

    You are welcome!  Outlook Express is part of Windows XP, so do not install it.  Here are the highlights:

    1. start Outlook, import the .pst file, quit Outlook.
    2. start Outlook Express, import messages from Outlook, close Outlook Express.
    3. copy the Outlook Express store folder in Windows 7.  To find its location, click Tools > Options > maintenance > store folder .
    4. start Windows Live Mail, import messages from the Outlook Express store folder.

    I think that this will pick up all accounts.

  • Problem Windows 7 Live Mail email

    When I send an email msg is saved in the Outbox folder and says will send next time messages are sent and received.  Never had this problem until a few days ago.  When I send an email msg it is saved in the folder box and said shipping will be sent the next time messages are sent and received.  But when I click 'Send and receive' he said to me I would go online and when I click on 'Yes' (never had to do before) nothing happens always emails are sent.  Also problem sending inserted or associated photos at the same time.  Extremely frustrating.  Please help - thanks!

    It sounds like Google Chrome interferes with online / offline. Open Internet Explorer, and then press Alt + F to open the file menu. If work offlineis selected, deselect it and see if you can now send and receive in Windows Live Mail. If it is not selected, select it, with a few moments and then deselect it again. Test of Windows Live Mail. You may need to repeat that the selection/deselection cycle a couple of times before Windows Live Mail receives the message.

  • Windows Picture and Fax Viewer File Extensions

    A few moments ago, I finished a session of 3 hours with Techs two, MS on a problem where MSN BING replaced my Google home page and nothing less than a miracle would help.  In addition, I just started to get a Google page that asked me to prove that I was a human and a robot entering symbols into a box of CAPTCHCA.  Technicians found that my office had acquired a serious virus, unknown name, and finally a level 2 Tech was able to restore Google as my home page.  Hooray!

    There are some bonus winnings, but now I have a problem I ask your help to deal with the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.

    Until the technicians tried to solve the problem of Google, I was able to put the captions of the photos that I downloaded via a memory card.  Then I got the card in the reader and before and after moving them to the folders on my dekstop I could type captions under the photos to replace what was there as IMG_0019.JPG.  After I typed everything which, in this case BOLA SETE RED VINYL, I now get a popup that says:

    [Rename

    If you change a filename extension, the filw may become unusable.  Are you sure you want to change it?  Yes No]

    Feeling cocky and sure that nothing will change in fact I clicked Yes and the photo has disappeared replaced by an icon that I describe.  A lost photo.

    After moving safely from the photos in different folders, I tried again to see if I could add a caption but I kept getting the dreaded above popup.  Then I did the photos via Picasa 3 and when I put pictures in the appropriate folders, I found that I could, and safely, add a caption.

    Can someone help me with this situation?  I want my old Picture and Fax Viewer because I don't always treat my photos with Picasa and I want to place them in appropriate folders, with good captions under the photos.  Can I pick up my old Picture and Fax Viewer or I'm screwed?

    Looks like you need to change the following setting.

    Open any folder and go... Tools / Folder Options / View tab on...
    Clear (clear) the box "Hide extensions of known file types" / apply / OK.

    Now... When you rename a photo... be absolutely sure that you do not delete the file
    extension... JPG for example.

    For photos that seem to corrupt now... If you rename them again and Add .jpg
    extension, they should return to normal.
