How do I open an email message in Wndows Mail. There appears to be no open button? It also seems rather complicated to save into the Drafts folder (with all the changing of directories).
View 8 RepliesWindows Mail: I'm seeing incoming mail going into the Drafts folder, and outgoing mail saved to the Drafts folder. Not all mail, but a lot of it. The same is happening in Windows 7 with Live Mail using a POP3 ISP account, not Hotmail. On the computers on which I've seen it, it's a relatively recent problem that didn't exist before. Possibly related to some Windows Update? I have some very irritated people badgering me about this and just can't find an answer.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI use Hotmail as my email provider. I have Windows Vista Home Prem. 64 bit.Everytime I reply or create a new outgoing msg. the msg. is automatically moved to the Drafts Folder after only 2-3min. Since I am a very slow typist and take time to research info it is not good for me. Can someone tell me how to lengthen the time to about 10 min. before it transfers the msg.?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there was any way to save the view type of each folder. Example: I have my music folder in list view as its easy to scroll down through to choose, but I like my picture folder in the large icon view so I can see each picture better. The problem is that it seems to change the view of all the folders when I change one, and sometimes I open a folder and get a completely random view type that I never use, like extra large. I there a way to save a view to a specific folder so it wont change?

I was using AVG. I have read all the other remarks about this problem and have followed some of the suggestions but nothing helps. I have checked and unchecked so many times, I don't even know what I have checked any more. One day it worked and the next day it didn't.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhenever I click on a link in an opened e-mail, I get a dialog box that says "Windows can't find "(path name)'. Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again." I know it is because I don't have a browser window open and it takes a couple of seconds for the browser to open and that's why I get the message. If I have an internet browser window open, I don't get this dialog box. It's just annoying and I'm wondering if there is some fix for this. By the way, I use Firefox as my default browser.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have W.Vista Home Premium & MS Office 2007. I am trying to insert my 'signature' into both sending and replying to my e-mails. I have followed the help instructions as I wanted to change the font to another style, colour etc. However 'Help' tells you to format your signature in a WP package and save in html format. Easy, I thought! In Word 2007 when you try to Save As - the html option si not in the drop down menu. so i tried in Wordpad, no luck ther either. how I save to html in vista? I had no problems in W.XP. Wish I had not had to change!
View 9 Replies View RelatedLike many others based on previous posts, am unable to open or save attachments in windows mail. I think my problem is exactly the same as "anhlyss" had in the posts in January. I am hoping there is an easier fix than restoring factory setting. As suggested in other threads, I have ensured that I have unchecked the "do not allow attachments to be opened" box in options.
If I click on the attachment to open it, the little hourglass pointer comes up, and then goes back to the arrow, but nothing else happens. If I try to save the attachment, I get this message: "There was an error saving one or more of your attachments, please check your free disk space and try again"
Something has changed in my Home Premium system such that I can no longer save to the desktop! When I try, I get an error message stating " You don't have permission to save in this location." I do not recall changing ANY permissions to prevent this. I did have a problem installing Office Home 2007 and maybe that caused a change. Where do I need to go to set the permission back to allow me to save to the desktop?
View 7 Replies View RelatedATTACHMENTS NOT OPENING IN WINDOWS MAIL ...
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have messages in my inbox. I have the preview pane open. It doesn't show anything when the message is clicked. So I double click the messages and it has the original message as an attachment in the message that opens. So I click the attachment and then it tells me that Windows cannot find such and such file, check spelling and try again. Plus all the emails that I had previously saved as save as in regular file folders as .eml on my computer instead of opening up as a regular email, they open as if the origianl email is an attachment and give me the same message. One thing I really hate about windows stuff is they are always changing the looks of it and how it works and it never works right for long before it messes up like this email stuff.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been reading all these messages, and I am so confused!! My life is in WinMail and I can't get it to open. I am getting that crazy junk mail and msoe.dll that everyone is complaining about and I'm freaking out!! Dell told me that I would need to backup my whole computer and restore my computer to factory configuration. I would prefer not to do this, as I'm not sure how.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a strange problem that I have found no solution for. At regular intervals Windows Mail starts and jumps to the foregroudn on its own without any action by me that would cause this behavior. Typical example is when playing a game/watching a video in full screen mode Mail jumps up and throws the other program in the background. This is extremely annoying, any suggestions on what might be causing this? I haved no mail accounts configured in Mail and I have tried to disable all automatic notifications and automatic checing for new messages.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm beginning to encounter a real problem with my Windows Live Mail [Hotmail] account. I am referring to the 'online' display for Live Mail, as opposed to the web-based version [requires sign-on]. This displayed version;
If I click on to the Live Mail icon in the Quick Launch tray, the 'timer' symbol appears briefly......then nothing.
I have been able to restore some function by going to Control Panel>Programs and Features>Windows Live Essentials, and carrying out a Repair of Windows Live Features. As a last resort, I've also carried out a couple of instances of System Restore. I realise that this latter action is rather drastic, but I cannot think of any other alternative.
Just a thought though, is there any danger of losing all my Hotmail Accounts [I have two] Folders and Messages, should I decide to Uninstall, then Reinstall Windows Live Mail?
Solution
After earlier editing this post for the first time, I continued to look for a solution in Vista Forums, and eventually found it in Brink's post on Windows Live Suite Downloads, here;
Windows Live Suite Downloads
It was here that I noticed that the Version of Live Mail that I was using [14.0.8050.1202], was different to the updated Version mentioned in Brink's post [14.0.8064.0206].
Initially, I tried to do the update using my Firefox 3.0.12 browser, but soon realised that it was more appropriate to do the Windows Live Mail update using Internet Explorer 8 as the browser, and by downloading the full list given for the Windows Live Suite. I have yet to check, but this action [the full download] may have also resolved an ongoing 'bug' I have in Windows Live Photo Gallery.
Incidentally, prior to this I had done a check of Windows Update, and it reported that there were no Updates outstanding.
To confirm that the update was successful, this is the latest Version of Live Mail now installed in my system;
I am so frustrated with Windows IE, Live Mail, you name it. The problem I have most often is, when I am opening my mail, it takes forever to load, then I get the error message "Windows Cannot display that page" - happens everytime I try to reply or send a message. I have a 9-month old Dell Studio, and despite the motherboard crapping out the second week I had it, it's been fairly okay for my needs. I run Vista XP Home, and I hate Vista, but cannot find out how to switch back to Win.
I got off track - How the heck can I fix Live mail to work better, or do I upload another browser program? Don't laugh, I don't know all the right terms to say - so "explain it to me like I'm a six-year old." (Anybody know the movie where that line is from?)
