After spending many hours, I have at last got Windows Mail working perfectly. I uninstalled my McAfee (that wasn't straightforward), deleted my accounts from Windows Mail - then re-instated them, and installed AVG.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am thinking yes with todays technology and older email clients doing this, but, when I set up one e-mail, mail comes in to a "Local Folders" "Inbox", so I wonder how I will separate my various accounts. Can I set up each to download into their own set of e-mail account folders rather than everything going to "Local Folders" "Inbox"? If I can set up more than one account, will Windows Mail automatically log into and download all of the email accounts when I open Windows Mail? This is quite difficult to set up when Windows Vista doesn't include help files. Even after I downloaded them, the help files for Windows Mail won't open.

I'm not talking about hotmail or anything like that, I'm talking about the program that comes with your computer, and registering your hotmail account onto that program. I got as far as entering your 'incoming mail server type' and 'outgoing mail server type.

View 4 Replies View RelatedOkay, here it goes. I first started using Windows Mail when I bought a new computer with Windows Vista back in January '09. I have four email accounts which I transferred over from an Outlook Express backup that I did before getting rid of my old computer. Windows Mail automatically set up a set of folders (Inbox, Outbox, Sent Items, Deleted Items, Drafts and Junk E-mail) for each account, each with a different color scheme, similar to Windows Live Mail. My hard drive crashed in June and I'm just now setting things up again with the new hard drive installed. I tried restoring my email accounts from a backup I had but now Windows Mail won't automatically create folders for each account. Instead, I had to set up separate Inbox folders with message rules for each account. However, all the accounts are still sharing the Outbox, Sent Items, Deleted Items, Drafts and Junk E-mail folders. Is there a way to set up a set of these folders for each account using message rules? And also, why did Windows Mail do that automatically for me the first time using it - could it be that the information came from an Outlook Express backup originally?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI use the Vista Firewall plus AVG Free 8.0 together with Firefox 3.5 Browser with Adblock. I also carry out a periodic manual scan using AdAware Anniversary Edition free.
Vista comes with Windows Defender, but in the 2 years I have had Vista, whenever I have scanned with it, it always reports 'no unwanted or harmful software detected - your computer is running normally!' Very reassuring or what? Does this mean everything else is doing a really good job or could it mean that Windows Defender is really not much use?
I have 17 accounts in Windows Mail. When I first start up WM, and go to retrieve mail,. all accounts work fine. But then any subsequent attempt to retrieve mail, and the process ignores the first two accounts. No errors, no message. It's just listed along with the others, but blank in the status column. And no errors reported either. So then if I exit WM and start over, it works fine again... for that first time. And then it's back to the same problem.

He uses one email from att.net and another e-mail for live.com... does anybody knows this off the top of their head?

View 4 Replies View Relatedif it's possible to uninstall windows live mail. It is not listed as a seperate program in the uninstall page. There are 4 people in my house who use this pc and hotmail and msn sends me directly to live mail, where the accounts are all mixed up together so that any new messages for me are sandwiched between others, even though it says I am logged in. My own fault for accepting updates to msn.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use the account function where you supposedly can set up your home account and then your work account in Windows Mail. Having done away with identities, you have to use tools->accounts to set them up. I have two accounts set up, one is me, the other is support, but I can't seem to find out how to switch between them. When I set them to be the default account, each in its turn it merged all the messages in my inbox view.
View 5 Replies View RelatedA few days ago, a message saying "windows detected a hard disk problem" appears when I log into Vista. Initially, nothing happen. Suddenly one day, my Vista started lagging(very serious). I therefore make it to be a USB external HD, and then try to copy the files. However, the HD stops working when reaching certain sector while copying. I attempt to repair it by using chkdsk tool and Seagate repair tool, the process stopped at a percentage. Any solution for me to copy my files please?

View 5 Replies View RelatedPardon if I just sound really computer illiterate, but I've recently switched from Windows XP to Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit.. and can't connect to the internet. I've got an HP Firebird 802, even sent it back to the company only to be told they had no problems connecting. I plugged in the ethernet cable directly into our wireless modem/router, but it still tells me that the network cable is unplugged. I've turned on Network Discovery, and still nothing. Just a lovely red X over my network status. I have a Westell 327w wireless modem/router, and the other computers that are on it are running XP.
