Windows Mail deletes random older messages
Hi, I just switched from outlook express to windows live mail and have had no problems with it, until this:
I noticed twice already, close to half of my emails (in my hotmail account), everything, randomly missing since the oldest in my Inbox. I couldn't find any setting for this under the account properties, and I don't know what else could be wrong.
It is not a matter of show/hide messages because I've seen discussed here... I checked for it.
Any suggestions?
Thank you
I found what my problem was. It was actually the Mac mail client that I was running on my work computer. I dug through the settings and found that there is only a box checked that says something like "delete messages from the server after 7 days have recovered."
I am familiar with mac mail but realize that I probably should imagine cela first place.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Lately when I turn on my computer, I get a message saying. "Windows mail can compact the message store. This can take up to a few minutes. "It looks like a real message of Windows but when I click on the link"Get help from communities", it does not work. I cancel or close the message, because I fear that the message can be fake and won't open my computer for a virus or worse. Anyone has any info on this particular message? I can't find anything in the help section of Windows. Thank you.

This means that there are more than a certain level of white space in your message store (usually this means that you have removed a number of items).
Yes go ahead.
Compacted mail databases are generally safer and more resistant to corruption than the non-compacted.

Windows Mail send random email attachments to unknown recipients without my knowledge.
Windows Mail send random email attachments to unknown recipients without my knowledge. The only reason I know this is a postmaster rejects opinion. How can I stop it?
original title: Windows e-mail virusesIf you use Windows Mail in Vista, then go to tools | Options | Security and check the box warn if other applications send by mail like you. I think, however, that your email address is being spoofed by another infected machine and send e-mails disguised coming from you. There is not much you can do about it.
Make sure that you machine is not infected by a virus scan (for example www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/) and search for malware (www.malwarebytes.org). But it may be that you or your machine that is responsible for sending spam that appears to come from your hand.
