• Windows Mail-> Thunderbird. Online help does not program. How to import?

  I'm trying to take the Thunderbird (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/switching-thunderbird#w_switching-from-windows-mail-or-windows-live-mail-to-thunderbird) online for converting Windows Mail to Thunderbird (no Live Mail). I'm at the stage of import. The instructions say:

  "In Thunderbird, go to tools | ImportExport | Import all messages from a directory. Also to its subdirectories. »

  Under Tools, there is import, but no footage. When the import option is selected, it does not allow a directory location, only what to import (Eveything, Mail, Contacts, etc.). When choose "Import all" and pressing 'Next' nothing is on the list to import. The button 'Next' does nothing and the Cancel button cancels the entire import.

  Can you explain (or point to an article accurate and up-to-date on) how to import all messages (including local mailboxes and the structures of files kept intact).

  Thank you.

  In the first paragraph of the section "Import Windows Mail Messages", it says you need to download and install the ImportExportTools add-on - we. Once installed, the relevant menu options will appear in TB.

• Restore saved the Windows Mail Messages in the New Installation of Windows Mail

  I found the following on this forum thread. Further to this review in the second paragraph, I was able to move a message to the empty folder. But I was unable to move the other messages in the folder. The files I tried to move appeared as attachments in a new message. The .eml files and not marked read-only. What should I try next?

  TIA,

  Windows Mail does not dbx files.  Copy the store directory of all message on the desktop of the new machine.  Then right-click on the file and go to properties and make sure that they are not read-only.  Then go to file | Import | Messages in WinMail and choose the format from Windows Mail 7 and point to this directory.   See also here for general information: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm
   
  If you can not always get messages in folders, you can create a new folder in WinMail and open it so that it displays a list of empty message.  Then, open up one of the subdirectories containing eml files in Explorer and drag an eml file on top of the list of message empty folder and drop and you will see it is embedded in the file.  Once you get a job, you can drag and drop all eml files at a time, as long as they are only the eml files.

  They are attachments because you drag another file in addition to the eml files.  When you select the eml files to ensure that they areonly the eml files and then it will work.

• Where should I contact regarding the functions of newsgroups in Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail?

  Where should I contact regarding the functions of newsgroups in Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail?

  I seem to have problems with Windows Mail, perhaps caused by the update KB978542 and/or run the program WMUtil.

  One of my Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit machines, whenever I try to start Windows Mail, it displays 0x800C0155 error message, then a message saying that he was unable to start because MSOE. DLL could not be initialized.

  The other has problems of material type instead: it's a laptop with no mouse and no reliable connection to the internet.

  On my Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit machine, I can start Windows Mail, but most local issues have disappeared - only the Inbox is visible.  I already checked that subdirectories for the other files are still present.

  All three of these machines have had problems of backups for months and have had no successful backup for the last two months.

  I have trouble finding enough information about Windows Live Mail without having to install this program if it could avoid these problems or just make it worse.

• import from windows mail emails from a broken vista pc

  My 32 bit Vista computer died - power, card mother etc. I have Acronis Disk full backups on a daily and external drive Acronis cloud of my files 'user '. What I don't have is a Windows Mail systems working group to export my old emails. When I run Thunderbird, are there emails in any way I can get these old backup, even if it means going from one place to another to get them.
  As a temporary measure, I am now on a Windows 7 64-bit system.
  If someone can help, but needs more information, let me know.
  Thank you.

  If your drag / drop off the mail will find themselves in some folder you \drop in.

  A better solution would be to use the add-on from the import export tools if you have several nested folders as it will import a folder and the subfolders. The add-on will recreate your folder structure. It you choose to import the messages in a folder and its subfolders.

• E-mail client reset to Windows Mail from Office Outlook on installation of the latter: How can I do this?

  I recently installed MS Office and of course Outlook has been installed too. Previously, I was able to send a link to Firefox by clicking on the file option and Windows Mail (my preference) would be the load with the link included in the email that I send. She insists now loads of Office Outlook. How do I re-set to Windows Mail? Thank you.

• Stop the background color printing on e-mail using Windows Mail

  I have asked this question before and was advised. [When I tried to find the answer, I got:' bughttps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683139 683139]-using the ' high contrast black ""Accessibility Option"Win XP results in the colors of the screen printing", I discovered there was no such bug by this number. Now I think that somewhere in Mozilla there is a simple and complete answer that would solve the problem that I, and several others are apparently seen. So, here is again - when I get and want to print it, the background color that I have on my Windows Mail page prints also. That I don't want. I want to email to print with no background color to everything to save on color ink. It is not flattering that I get an email from my background color is printed when I print the email. So, I need to know how to prevent that from happening?

  Another thread is here - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/912736 - why did you mark it as resolved and then start another thread?

  https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683139

  This bug exists and a fix we talked until the discussion has been hijacked. Not yet fixed, so turn off the high contrast in Windows text looks like the way to avoid this issue for now. Or use another browser to print from Windows Mail for now.

• Windows mail problem

  Hello guys. I have windows vista Home premium 32-bit, such as Kaspersky Internet Security antivirus. I do not know "why windows mail does not open.
  I wrote: "cannot open windows mail because of a software restriction policy. For more information, contact the system administrator". Can you help me? I have HP Pavilion a6255.it desktop computer. Help

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum.

  Read this post on the support of Microsoft Answers forum:

  If all goes well, the proposed registry tweak would do the trick.

  If you need a software email client for home or small office use, I also recommend that you consult Mozilla's Thunderbird:

• How to recover after crash emails from windows mail?

  I just had to reload vista & all my old files are stored in a folder called "windows.old" including a folder of windows Messaging. I am trying to retrieve all mails that were in windows mail before everything crashed on me, someone knows how?

  I agree with Akuma. It is certainly not related issue of Toshiba and you should try to check some Microsoft forum and try to find a definitive answer.

• Re: Issue of drafts of Satellite A200-28 and Windows Mail

  Hello

  can anyone help?
  My laptop has SP1 on it and seems OK except with Windows Mail.

  Every now and then when I put an email in the drafts folder when I return to finish writing it this stupid laptop has marked as an email sent so I can't change it.

  I have to open select "just cut" and paste it into a new email.
  Does anyone else have this problem?

  Stupid thing, it's there are 6 other e-mails in there in some are finished, some are not.
  Yet his chosen it to mark it as a read/sent email.

  Check if you have installed the latest updates for Windows Vista? Thought, there was an update for Windows Mail or something like that.
  This behavior was before you update SP1 already there?

  But I couldn't be that he must look at its parameters. Maybe there are a few options on air currents and how they are treated.
  Sorry, can't give you better help, because I only use Outlook.

• Problem with Windows Mail on Satellite L350-145

  Establishment of a L350-145, I met a problem to start Windows Mail.
  At first, I thought that the problem could have been due to a large Import OE, or an interaction with my AV (Kaspersky) or software firewall (Comodo).

  However, having disabled from this other software, then by removing existing user Windows Mail files and finally have restored the system to the box start in HARD drive recovery files, I'm still having the problem, it's...

  If I do a deed of record (for example, creating or deleting a folder), the list of records not updated until I exit and restart the Windows Mail application. Similarly, if I empty the deleted items folder that contains a folder deleted the content of deleted items not updated until I exit and restart the application.

  Because this behavior is allowing me to perform actions on files that have already been made, I fear this could eventually lead to a corruption of file / data mean. And since I can reproduce this problem on a freshly recovered system * before * any operation others actions and installs, I'd be surprised to see that no one he met.

  My conclusion is that there is a problem with the distribution of Toshiba for this laptop. The file name for the collection was 06491XSP.swm.

  Try to update Windows Mail and see how it goes.

  I think that its been via WindowsUpdate.

  Otherwise, try the free (and big!) Mozilla Thunderbird

• Desktop SMS and Windows Mail are not working together

  Hello

  thought I'd post here here as having a few issues with my Windows Mail but my desktop computer suffers the same problems and on a Vista forum where I posted my problem a few very useful told me who to try to solve the problems.

  One of them suddenly realized I had said my laptop is a Toshiba, and apparently the Desktop SMS and Windows Mail are not working together so that the person suggested unless I use it to uninstall apparently amongst the technically trained its known that these two programs do not like each other and explain why my office is not the problem but the laptop don't.

  After you have reset the Touch of Windows Mail (tutorial on a site http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/ vista) wood don't be put off by vistax64 as site 32 and 64 and followed great reset Windows Mail from Brink (do not restore all mail) then uninstalled Desktop SMS and touch of the drink no more mail questions that gave me problems almost every day with marking than reading/sending project messages.

  So had to click forward then remove those bits and complete the email to send and touch wood since doing these two things as soon as send an email to the box shipment or project to obtain the number of emails in parentheses, whereas before it wouldn't happen unless I closed the program and then reopened.

  Hoping that these solutions have solved my problem and wanted to share it with someone else who wants to read this thread and you recommend Vista 64 because they are all very useful there and speak in non-technical terms for those of us not technically trained.

  Thanks for this piece of information. Should be useful for some of us.
