• How can I block senders in WIndows Live Mail

  I want to block certain senders to my Windows Live Mail account. I'm used to be able to do it on Outlook Express. When I try to do it on Windows Live mail, I change the message rules to block messages and they always appear on my emails. When I go to check the rules of message, it says at the bottom that is not available on Windows Live mail.

  Thank you

  See if it works.

• Windows Live Mail does not present as an option for default programs or in the Start Menu.

  Something happened this week. I can't identify enough exactly when so I can't say with certainty whether or not it is the new update of 2011.

  I use Windows Live Mail (desktop application) for the mail. It is installed and since I built the machine first. I've recently updated for 2011 through Windows Update. In the Start Menu, the default e-mail link no longer works. If I go to customize, I have the options of Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, and Outlook. If I select Windows Live Mail, it launches a web browser to go to live.com and use Hotmail (which I don't use).

  Now, if I choose Windows Mail, and then re - open Windows Live Mail manually, I can set it by default. In this case, when I go back into the Start Menu, the link is there but empty and you get a message that "the selected item is not available. It might have been moved, renamed, or deleted. You want to remove from the list? "I can't get around that. Under "Default programs" in the Control Panel, Windows Live Mail is not yet there. It's as if she is not yet installed, and whatever the shortcut points to (wherever it may be) is apparently nothing. In the registry, under HKLM/Software/customers/Mail, there is no key for 'DLLPath' and "LocalizedString" as there are other programs.

  I must point out that repair installation does not help and neither does file and reinstalling.

  I managed to solve the problem.  I received an email from another user and I'm sorry to say, I do not remember what were the instructions in the email.  The answer to (y) our problem used to exist on the web, until Microsoft has removed the old answers live site, or something like that.

  IIRC, I believe that it was fixing the misdirected registry keys.

• Cannot send mail with Hotmail on Windows Live Mail, error 0x8DE00005

  I can't send an email to my hotmail account. Download Live Mail error ID 0x8DE0005. Help, please!

  [Original title: can not send email]

  Server error: 3219
  Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x8DE00005

  These error codes indicate that your Outlook.com account has been upgraded to the new version. Please log in to the account to http://mail.live.com; do you see something like that in the upper left of the window?

  

  If so, you cannot use DeltaSync for access to this account. You can find instructions to set up the account using the IMAP protocol on this page: Windows Live Mail and Outlook e-mail

  If you connect Windows Live Mail with this account, you will find that the calendar or contacts don't will sync any more.

  If all goes well, this will be a temporary situation until an update is released for Windows Live Mail to synchronize these accounts once more.

• Emails, do not download Windows Live Mail of BT Yahoo

  My wife's cell phone bought in 2011 running Windows 7 and it uses Windows Live Mail to his email. She has accounts of BTinternet and until about two weeks ago e-mails downloaded easily from the BT Yahoo accounts. E Mails can be read on the BT Yahoo server but do not download in Windows Live Mail more. Strangely it can send form emails Windows Live one of his accounts.

  How can I fix this please?

  Colin

  Microsoft no longer supports the so-called synchronization delta including windows live mail uses
  If you use ONLY to send and not calendar & contacts windows live mail (any version), you can configure to operate using IMAP/POP.  If you do not need to synchronize the calendar & contacts...
  It is an excellent replacement for Windows live mail which is free to try (up to 2 accounts) that BECAUSE of the work with the new outlook e-mail format called emclient.  There is also a paid version. You can either get here
  http://www.emclient.com/
  It works with Exchange, POP, IMAP and looks like Windows live mail.  Frankly, it's the first replacement I've seen that actually works.  I spent.
  They have their own support forums, a decent product and seem to be the only replacement for WLM that has the appearance of it.
  You can import all your windows live mail in emclient easily by doing a file > import > windows live mail.  This will import your current data of WLM in emclient
  On the side of caution I make a copy of the entire record of the WLM and save it somewhere safe.
  There is a good wiki about it here

• Switch from Win XP and OE Express to Windows live mail, then in Win7 running Outlook 2010 - how?

  This is NOT an easy process.

  (A) can I download Windows Live mail on my Win XP machine to migrate my e-mal address book and messages?

  (B) then, after I get stuff all the Windows Live stuff I'm supposed to be able to download stuff on Win 7 and Outlook.

  Copy all the files from Outlook Express dbx on the XP machine in the Win 7 machine.  Also, to find the wab (address book) file and copy that.  Then in Outlook try Alt | File | Options | Advanced | Export and click on the button "export".  Then gives you options to import messages or address book and OE to choose it.  I have not tried and it might not work, but this would be the simplest method and you wouldn't have to go through living things.

  See instructions for import here: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for Windows Mail in Vista.  Most of the provisions continue to apply, but in Outlook Import Wizard may not have the quirkiness of the Vista one.  Dbx files cannot be readonly however and the folders.dbx file must be present.  And copy the dbx files to a folder on the desktop on the Win7 machine so you won't not permissions with importation problems.
