I do not use windows mail, I use outlook express and I'm not sure what to tell him to do.
  Thanks for any help... sue city sioux

  If she is using an Anti Virus application, disable or uninstall the e-mail scanner, it is probably the cause.  Windows Mail is extremely sensitive to the scanners by email and mail that disappears is a common symptom of a missing thug of e-mail scanner.

  Why you don't need your anti-virus program to scan your E-Mai l

  Try to compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  There is likely an inconsistency between what is really there and what think the database is where and who must reconcile the two.  So beware of interference from antivirus software which can cause these issues (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).

  No, it has nothing to do with your messages, photos etc etc. It is necessary to click Yes.

• Windows Mail - creating message rules

  Hello:

  I created a folder named Gmail in my Windows Mail. I want to have my Gmail sent to my Windows mail. I was able to do this and now I can get my Gmail in Windows Mail in the folder I created.

  (In Windows Mail, create a new folder and then set Message rules to send any Gmail email in this folder)

  However, I don't have an Inbox, Outlbox, sent and deleted special folders like I do for my default e-mail account. I can create them, but they are not "attached" to the folder of Gmail at all and do not present as it would in the folder by default 'sent' or 'delete '. An e-mail sent from the Gmail account in my default "sent" folder will not display the Gmail folder. The Gmail folder only shows incoming emails.

  Any ideas how to do this?

  Thank you-

  Debbie Debbie

  Hello

  Gmail created, such as POP3 (or any POP account) is that you described, however you can use RULES to send
  message to the folder you want. If you set as IMAP, then your file would be active in under the account
  main folder and if you change online or in your e-mail client, they will be synchronized. However in IMAP you
  cannot apply the RULES in your email client if you could use similar on webmail IF they are available. There may be
  3rd party utilities for use RULES for IMAP.

  You can mix and thus have pop3 and imap accounts. Here are some examples if you use Google - other
  e-mail providers have probably similar at least Pop3 if some are only web based.

• Windows Mail error, 'Message is not found' and emails are lost

  Click any message in a file and get the same opening
  Move all messages from Inbox and show then all of the remaining messages in the folder "Message was not found.
  Move folder and opening his new message displays the contents of another message
  Usually messages are scrambled or lost - not sure
  Digitized and up-to-date anti-virus software
  Able to send and receive fine, only problems with drag and drop/move messages to other folders

• Checked Windows Mail for messages after 8 days and all my emails are missing.

  original title: Lost email

  After 8 days, I went back and checked Windows Mail messages.  Shows 90 + messages unread; then "Windows server has stopped...". "No emails. nothing.  A test message to me has been a success, but 8 days of messages have been lost.

  See here for information on how WinMail stores messages (www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm).  Under the Inbox of the message store directory (as indicated by Imran), the eml for the Inbox files are located.  Which opens in Windows Explorer and see if the number of eml files is the number of messages that signals the WinMail.  If the number of eml files is higher than the number WinMail indicates, then its likely lost some of these messages are still there.  You can try similar tests in other folders as well.  If you find more WinMail indicates, then you can drag all eml files out to explore in a new Windows Mail folder and then you can figure out which has been lost.

  Also check for 3rd-party program interference that might have caused the loss.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
