Windows Mail and Outlook questions

I have an older version of Windows Office installed on my computer that includes Outlook Express, I also installed Windows mail.  I hooked up the windows mail to my verizon email account.  But when I click on the answer to an online ad, as a Craig List ad, online, the window of Outlook Express comes up instead of Windows mail.  How can I make windows mail window that appears?

Hello

Check application is set as the default e-mail application. If outlook express is set as default e-mail then you may need to change the default mail to Windows Mail application and check if that helps.

    The following versions of Microsoft Outlook are fully supported on Windows 7;

    • Outlook 2003
    • Outlook 2007
    • Outlook 2010 (when it came out)

    It is recommended to always update your version of Outlook directly after installation to take care of any question of incompatibility which have been corrected.

    Previous versions
    Another version of Outlook is not supported on Windows 7. Although you may install it, any compatibility issues is not corrected. For example;

    • Outlook 2002/XP works on Windows 7, but it has the same problems remember password when using Windows Vista.
    • Outlook 2000 cannot be installed in Internet Mail Only Mode (IMO) and must be installed in company/workgroup (CW Mode) Mode to prevent a mistake wab.dll.

  • What is the difference between Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail?

    Separated from this thread.

    I realize that starting from 7/11, Windows Live is more effective on my Windows Vista system.  I understand that and I have since beengetting my Hotmail acc't workingusing only Windows Live Mail.  This am, I tried to create a new account hotmail for my friend, but we couldn't get it to accept and just stopped trying.  Now, today, I can not send any e-mail because "you cannot configure Windows Mail to use a web (HTTP) that is running Windows Vista based."  WHA?  I managed somehow to get into Windows Live when I tried to get a new account hotmail for my friend?  Also, I also receive a message from the Assistant on "you want to want to leave, you have not created your new account?  (probably not the exact wording).  In response, I clicked Yes and no, and still I can't get out of this Windows Live.  I would like to purge my system of this needless to Windows Live and only use Windows Live Mail.  Can someone help me to do this?  (My knowledge of couputer is at a basic level, so hopefully it won't be too difficult to understand.)  Thank you!!!

    (With the HTTP mess), it seems Windows Mail and Windows LIVE Mail are two very different things.

    I am not a technician, but try to stay up-to-date. I have known that Vista sucks because it came out, but it surprised me, never have used before today. So I wonder...  Windows LIVE Mail can be installed on a Vista unit, and if so he would remove the format HTTP bug? It's all THE Microsoft, after all! On my PC with Windows 7 HP with complete Essentials, including Live Mail (for PC, to avoid confusion with the version online), I have not had any problems to Hotmail at work, send or receive. GMail also, no problem, the only thing I did NOT like about Live Mail is that it doesn't have the handy function "Sweep" that I love, I just go online to own things very quickly. With only Windows Mail (which I assume is supplied with Vista), it won't let me even try to set-up Hotmail/Outlook account. It's stupid, because like I said it's all EM!

    peace ~

    Windows Mail is the e-mail that comes with client program and a part of Windows Vista. Windows Live Mail is a program available for free download; It is an e-mail client, the timing, the Manager contacts, aggregator and newsreader at a single feeding program.

    Until a few years ago, it was possible to synchronize the Hotmail accounts with e-mail clients on Windows XP and Vista (Outlook Express and Windows Mail respectively) using WebDAV over HTTP protocol. This method has been deprecated after a long sequence of initialization in September 2009. Before that date, POP3 access has been made available for all Hotmail accounts. At any time it was not possible to access Hotmail email clients accounts. There is no bug involved here, nor in HTTP format or anything else.

    Windows Live Mail is built to use a different former WebDAV protocol; DeltaSync protocol allows the synchronization of e-mail folders, contacts, and calendars between client and server.

    You may be able to download the installer for Windows Live Mail 2011 of this page: How to install Windows Essentials while offline? Do not try to include Windows Live Writer or Messenger in the installation; None of them will work and you can gum up toward the top of the entire installation Essentials if you do. It may be better to stick to one mail at first. Windows Live Mail 2011 is the latest version which runs on Vista.

    Hi Samantha,

    For you help I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:

    (1) what accounts you set up on the Mail App?

    (2) you get an error message / code?

    Check out the links and follow the troubleshooting steps;

    Method 1:

    Method 2: Temporary deactivation of the antivirus/firewall software

    Enable or disable Windows Firewall

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    You should contact the provider of messaging and see there are problems.  See also if you can connect via webmail and if it works.

  • I use windows mail and put so once I go to windows mail notes are deleted from the Yahoo Server. Now, all of a sudden, they go in the trash of Yahoo instead of disappering

    Windows with Yahoo mail.


    I use windows mail and put so once I go to windows mail notes are deleted from the Yahoo Server. Now all of a sudden, they go in the trash of Yahoo instead of disappering. I use Yahoo mail for junk and spam of the screen, empty the trash from Yahoo, then open the remaining notes with Windows Mail after the release of Yahoo. This has just begun.

    It is not clear if you use a POP3 server or an IMAP account - it sounds as if it were an IMAP.  I don't know how messages get tossed into the trash from Yahoo rather than be removed.  You could try to remove the account, closing and reopening of Winmail opener and then adding the new account.  This resolve sometimes strange questions.  Also check interference antivirus (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).

  • Export Windows Mail to Outlook 2003 on VISTA error "can't initialize MAPI.

    The woman has Windows Vista Home Premium installed. Using Windows Mail. We want to move to Outlook 2003. MS Office 2003 (including Outlook) was installed, was able to connect to the mail server, we use (POP3). With the help of the excellent Note Microsoft KB 196347 to export emails in Windows Mail when I choose the file, then export, then the Messages, then Microsoft Exchange, and then click OK in the popup note, I get this error: "Export could not be performed. An error occurred during initialization of MAPI". I read a lot of notes related to MAPI forum on import INTO Windows Mail, but not vice versa. NOTE: I installed VISTA family premium on my own PC, configure Windows Mail and then installed Office 2003 (including Outlook). I followed the same steps of export and had no problems. My VISTA installation is new, and my wife has been in place for about a year. Any help is appreciated! -Al

    It is difficult to understand what the problem could be.  You can try compacting and repairing the database on the machine of your wife, but I don't know if this will have an impact on the problem (seewww.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  Moreover, as a workaround you could transfer the Bank of messages of the wife to your pc, import the messages and then export them to Outlook, and then move the PST to his machine.  See here for general information: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx
     
    You can also consult an Outlook forum to see if they have a solution.

  • Transfer of stuff email from windows mail to outlook express

    Is there a way to get windows mail to export the email info IE PST file, so I can forward the e-mail to another computer running XP with outlook express

    Windows Mail or Outlook Express uses pst files. Only use MS Outlook. A simple way to do what you want it to.

    Create a folder on the Vista desktop. Drag a WinMail folder messages in this folder. Copy it to the desktop of the XP machine and drag messages from the desktop folder to a folder in OE. Make as many records as needed. Bruce Hagen MS - MVP [Mail]

  • How can I transfer my stuff from Windows Mail to outlook?

    Hi people,

    I have just upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate on Vista Ultimate.  I know that Windows 7 does not support Windows Mail, so I need to switch to Outlook or Windows Live Mail.  I can't get Windows Live Mail with Yahoo (and Yahoo can help people).  On the other hand Outlook does not support the focus groups.

    I want to spend my email from Windows Mail in Outlook.  I can't find Windows Mail.  Any suggestions, tips ect. would be most appreciated. Shane

    Hi Shane,

    Thanks for posting. Windows Mail is no longer included in Windows 7. Now, Windows Live Mail is the customer, you can use Microsoft to your e-mail. You can install Windows Live Mail from the link below.

  • Windows 7 and Outlook 2007, Microsoft Word won't open

    Windows 7 and Outlook 2007 - Microsoft Word attachments are not open.  Word opens but not the file.  Excel works fine.  Sometimes just Word opens and says not responding do not.  If I erase the data word file in via regedit it solves the problem. Also, whenever I open Word I get the question if I want Word to make changes to my computer.  In addition, I can't open Word files by double-clicking.  I have to open Word first.

    Techie Microsoft asked me to change a setting of compatibility on the winword exe file and it fixed the problem immediately.

    Even if Verizon was working on a fix - it would be a matter of Verizon.  At Verizon, he has not broken - just, they do not offer the service.
     
    Your options are to use a different email client, webmail, or get an e-mail service provider that does not have the same limitiation.  There's a reason many people have Google and Hotmail/Outlook.com e-mail accounts.  A good thing about to get something like one of these: If you change internet service providers - just email continues to work.
