Windows Mail (Gary van)

Gary, when I go to default programs, Internet Explorer is not in the list. Only thing it is Microsoft Office Outlook and Quicktime.

This isn't a forum appropriate for Internet Explorer problems.
You will get more help by posting this question in the forum of EI:

  • Windows Mail error - error number: 0x800CCC0E - "the connection to the server has failed..." »

    From: bbell121

    I have, I've been making the mistake of another email on another connection on below = the same PC configuration SMTP and POP3 works on another PC but when I try the frame to the top of the same bet on the same PC I have two connections I get this
    message;

    The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'Colleen', server: 'xxxxxxxx.yourwebhosting.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 10061, error number: 0x800CCC0E

    I readt through this channel and have tried most of the things listed I have Norton System works 2009 I tried it is installed and uninstalled as well.

    I'm running out of ideas?

    I tried port 25 (which works on another PC) but on this one it is not.
    I tried the 587 port not working either.

    anyhelp would be greatly appreciated

    I guess that your problem is with the reception, because the error message you have provided relates to the reception.
    Ports 25 and 587 do not affect receive it, because they are for the shipment.

    The error message is difficult to assess because you x'd, one part of the name of the server. Perhaps the error is in the part "xxxxxxxx" to the name of the server.

    McAfee antivirus is among the three troublemakers albums for Windows Mail.
    It sometimes takes a while before the symptoms begin to appear.
    First of all, turn off e-mail McAfee analysis, even if it is rarely sufficient.
    Then delete that email account (because it has been damaged by McAfee),.
    Restart Windows Mail, and then recreate the account.
     
    If the problem persists, the only way you can prove or disprove that
    McAfee is the culprit is to uninstall it, and then using their debris removal tool:
    If you decide to replace McAfee, we recommend a free antivirus
    the program that is no longer compatible with Windows Mail.
     
    Rather than move to another antivirus, another option is to upgrade
    for Windows Live Mail (WLM), which better resists the harmful effects
    too intrusive anti-virus products:
     
    Even with WLM, you must turn off email scanning in the antivirus,

  • How to remove 'hidden' contacts that do not appear in my contact list in Windows Mail?

    I have a contact in mail. I guess that it was put there by a few emails I inadvertently opened. Anyway when I try to fill in the "to" box on a message that I normally get an AutoComplete list, I put in the first letter of the name, if there are several names starting with the same letter. Now, when I start typing a name with the letter 'L', instead of the 4 names in my contact list that start with 'L', I get the full name of a spammer, let's call him "loser at lumphead dot com. When I went to my list of contacts to remove this stupid I couldn't find this address! So I have 3 questions. Where Mail did in fact raise the file which has the coordinates? How an address to get into the system like that and stand out of the list of contacts? Most important: how to remove a contact 'hidden' like that?

    Thank you for your quick response.
    No, Shawns response suggested to go to the C:\users\myname\contacts file and delete it from there. I had tried before when I tried to locate the list of contacts somewhere outside Mail (sorry I forgot to mention that). But the contacts Vista file did not show this 'hidden contact' either. But further down the page, I found an answer to a similar problem. Gary van in reply to "re: delete contacts autocomplété" gave this link.

    http://www.Winhelponline.com/articles/264/1/utility-to-clear-recently-used-email-addresses-in-Windows-mail.html

    This leads to a file called winmailmru.zip. This tool allowed me to bring up a window showing ALL the contacts which it previously 'hidden', with options to remove them. I selected and deleted. Problem solved.
     
    But I still wonder: where was hiding the contact "hidden"? If it wasn't not in Contacts of Vista directory where Mail was from?  How this winmailmru.exe utility it found? It is also strange that the contact in question seems to have the ability to bypass the selection popup box that shows generally all other contacts beginning with the letter typed and force his way into the 'To' box, excluding the possibility of chooseing another contact. I am happy that my immediate problem is solved, but I wonder if the ability of a person sending a mail to 'hide' a normal contact and overide process in Mail is a security problem or just a nuisence? Anyway, thanks again for putting me on the path to the solution.

    You can try to reduce the spam at low setting, if you haven't done so already. Additionally, make sure that all of your contacts are in your Contacts or safe senders list and not on the list of senders blocked (by mistake). In addition, the parameter "email from my Windows Contacts also trust" should be checked. If this does not resolve the problem, put the filter of junk off the coast (No automatic filtering"). You would then have to rely on spam
    filtering on your email provider website.

  • 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:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/3818-Windows-Live-Mail-import-Vista-contacts-contact-groups.html

    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 Mail 0x800CCC0F error code.

    My Windows Mail software has suddenly stopped working and now shows an error 0x800CCC0F code both to receive and send mail. I have the same account settings (POP3, SMTP, SSL, socket, etc.) on another PC using Outlook Express, which works correctly. I recently installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and my PC of Windows Mail and Mail has not worked since. Is there a conflict between the software? How can I restore my Windows Mail capabilities?

    The error "suddenly come to an end" is usually caused by interference from an antivirus program. What antivirus do you use? Some of them are causing problems with Windows Mail over time. At a minimum, email, scanning in the antivirus must be turned off, although maybe it's not enough to eliminate all the bad effects. In the worst case scenario, your antivirus program may be uninstalled/reinstalled or replaced. A free antivirus that is 100% compatible is available here:
     
    E-mail analysis in any antivirus must be disabled, for the reasons explained here:

  • How to set up Windows mail to e-mail addresses for automatic filling of my address book?

    In Outlook, the program will automatically fill out address in my address book. In Windows Mail, this happens. Windows Mail will offer one or two fill automatic, but not all of my address book options.

    For example if I enter the letter 'b' in the To: and then I want to see all the entries in my address book starting with the letter 'b '. How to make this happen?

    http://www.Vistax64.com/Vista-mail/154198-AutoFill-Windows-mail.html

    WM remembers only a certain number of addresses of recent emails sent.

    Read the info at the link above relating to this problem of Windows Mail.

    Under certain conditions, Windows Mail saves much less than 29
    addresses for AutoFill. For those who need this feature to work
    correctly, go to WLM. It uses the entire list of Contacts for
    AutoFill.

  • Problems sending mail in Windows Live Mail (and Windows Mail)

    De :  MarkJ

    Hello

    I had a go at some of the solutions I've seen for this problem but have had no luck yet, I wonder if Miss me something?

    So, I can receive emails without problem (in Windows Live Mail and Windows Mail), but don't have had no success sending (although I can always send mails when I access my account online).

    The fixes I've tried so far are:

    -through my account settings and to ensure that they are as indicated by my email provider (I have an ntlworld account). IE POP3 and SMTP settings must be correct.

    -then I tried to check the box "my server requires authentication" (did not work)
    - then I tried completely disabling my firewall/anti-anti-virus/e-mail protection (ZoneAlarm) who also worked
    - then I tried to install an update of sorts for Windows Mail (not Live Mail) (found on a Board communities, sorry can't remember which, but it was an official update from microsoft)... and it does not work
    -Finally, I tried to install Windows Live Mail... and Yes you guessed it, that does not work either (I also checked the settings etc.)

    ....... I wonder why things have to be so difficult?

    Can someone please tell me where I'm wrong!

    This is the error message I get:

    The connection to the server has failed.

    Subject 'Test '.
    Server: 'smtp.ntlworld.com '.
    Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x800CCC0E

    To solve the problem of sending (at home) once for all, you need to replace the Server SMTP from Orange to smtp.ntlworld.com. I don't know, what if Orange will allow you to keep your return address of NTL, when sending to Windows Mail. It's worth a try.

    In this case, use the settings given here:
     
    Use port 587 instead of port 25 of the SMTP server.
     
    To give you a little history, Windows Mail does not support the HTTP messaging, which for a long time was the only authorized method of access for free Hotmail/MSN accounts. In addition, given that the development of Windows Mail was frozen in July 2006, there no knowledge that Microsoft has enabled POP access for free Hotmail/Live/MSN accounts in February 2009. Therefore, the Windows Mail Account Setup Wizard is hardcoded to reject the Hotmail and MSN addresses. To work around this limitation, when you enter your Hotmail/MSN email address, initially, use a fake domain, such as * address email is removed from the privacy *. After the account setup is complete, you can go back into the settings and correct your email address.

  • How to access Windows Mail from another PC on the network home wireless.

    I have Windows Mail already implemented on the Dell XPS with Vista. We have added a second Netbook with Windows 7 on wireless network at home. How can I access the widows of the second PC Mail account? Thank you

    The solution mentioned by others you will only see
    new entrants on multiple computers.  It will allow you to see the
    messages sent from a computer to be seen on several computers.  In the order
    to do the latter, you would need to move to an IMAP or HTTP account rather
    as POP3.
     
    Note this time Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail require that their message
    store reside on a local hard drive, not on premises that are not accessible via the network
    drive.

    Do need me an e-mail account with an ISP if my system already has Windows Mail?

    Some of the answers are a bit misleading.  You will need an e-mail account,

    e-mail account of Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail and many other mail services
