Windows Live Mail on Vista OS.
My old Winows Mail Vista would transfer to my email address from my ISP. Windows Live Mail seems to copy the mail and leave my box to the ISP with old messages which was read on Windows Live Mail mailbox. What settings should I change to get Windows Live Mail to transfer my verses ISP email copy?
If you use WLMail Wave 3: tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - uncheck: leave a copy of messages on the server.
I guess it's probably the same in Wave 4, but wave 3 was enough torture for me.

Windows Live Mail and Vista 32 OS
Greetings,
I've been using Windows Mail with excellent results. My ISP changed their mail servers and I can not get Windows Mail to manage two accounts by using rules. I would like to know if Windows Live Mail 2011 will work on my desktop which is running Vista 32 with SP2?
If so, what is my best method to get all the email and settings transferred from Windows Mail to Windows Live Mail. I'm trying to avoid having to re-download all old messages stored on the server of my ISP.
Thank you in advance for your help!

How can I import groups of Windows Mail contacts in Windows Live Mail?
I work in a small office where we have computers running Windows Vista and using Windows Mail (version 6.0.6000.16388). We have hundreds of contacts and a few contact groups on these computers.
A few months ago, we got two new computers running Windows XP and Windows Live mail (version 2009, version 14.0.8089.0726). Other computers at the office always have Vista and the other version of Windows Mail.
I was able to export our hundreds of contacts and import them into Windows Live Mail for new computers have all the contacts... but I was unable to find a way to import groups.
These groups are all very large and comprise mostly/entirely out of contacts that do not have individual contact entries.
I've been Googling for a solution to this problem. The page nearest you, that I could find was this:
I was very discouraged when I saw the big red warning to the top of the page:
---------------
In the Groups of Contact with Vista, only contacts who are also included as normal Contacts will be imported into Windows Live Mail. Contacts that have been created for the Contact Group only will not be imported into Windows Live Mail. You will need to write these down and add them manually in Windows Live Mail.
---------------This pretty much described my situation exactly, but manually going through all groups, write all contacts, and then import them manually into two separate machines should always and is simply not an option.
Are there really no other way I can get these groups into Windows Live Mail?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!
I have not actually tried this, but I think this method will work.
1. get a free Live ID (or @hotmail.com or @live.com).
2. install Windows Live Mail on Vista computer. During the installation, it will offer to signature with a Live ID. Do.
3. the first performance of Windows Live Mail, it will be important to all contacts from Windows Mail. Give him enough time to synchronize all contacts with the web version of this Live ID.
4. open Windows Live Mail on the new computer and then connect with the same Live ID. The automatic synchronization process will transfer in all contacts of the web version of this Live ID.

Windows Live Mail 2010 fixed background image missing (not even the Red Cross)
Hi, my client runs Windows Live Mail on Vista. I was about to set up remote a stationary to his e-mail account. When she opens the new window message, stationary is visible with images. The problem appears when she sends an email - no visible images, without attachments, no red cross. When I look in the source code for mail
has no background style, located on the stationary file. I checked all (I assume) possibilities: HTML settings include image - checked, the security settings - very well. All solutions on the web seems to refer to the Red Cross - at the opposite image. I can't find any similar to mine. SA is also difficult because there is hundreds kilometers between me and his computer. Thanks in advance or any help.Here's the part of my code:

I had problems with windows live mail, I uninstalled it, now I have no mail at all, I was using windows vista
Hello
You can download, install, and configure Windows Live Mail again or use Windows Mail, which is the default email program in Vista.
How to set up Windows Mail.
Contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider); They provide your broadband / dial connection.
Ask them to:
1. your username with them
2. your password with them.
3 incoming mail POP3 server.
4. the outgoing mail SMTP server
All the settings that you need to come from them, not Microsoft; and they are usually happy to help you set up your e-mail program.

Windows mail (Vista) for issue of Windows live mail (Windows 7)?
I have windows on my old computer (Vista) mail and windows live mail on my new laptop (Windows 7). Is it possible to keep my current e-mail address and use windows live mail to send and receive e-mails?
Yes, but if you want two machines to receive the messages, and then on the two machines, go to tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced (where it is in WinMail and I think it's similar to WLM) and mark the option leave a copy of messages on the server. In this way the two machines will bring them. Then on one machine set to delete after a few days, so that they do not obstruct the mailbox on the server. You can get help for WLM: www.windowslivehelp.com
