Well im very new to windows mail, in fact only a few hours, and trying to set up the email has proven to be a real headache.On outlook express, my husband and i had seperate email accounts, we logged in to them seperate and for some reason i dont appear to be able to do this with windows mail.I put all our info in as you do when adding an account and did this twice one with my details and one with my husbands (pop3, smtp email address etc) when i opened up windows mail, all the mail was going in to one box and not serperate. I changed it so we had to enter the password each time to login thinking this might open it up as serperate, no. how i get round this, i know there must be a way, but im getting so frustrated with it now, i cant see what im looking at, ive been trying for so long.
I have a question about setting up an account from other than my isp, ex: comcast. I am a volunteer at a christmas website and I need to set up an account. When I set it up the same as I did in outlook express I get the error message that my login has failed. However, I can access the account on webmai.
I have been trying to set up my windows mail email account for about 3 days now and i cant get it to work. If you have a yahoo mail account and have set this up ....
I am not sure how I am supposed to set up my Microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail. How do I set up my account so that I can send and receive e-mails through it. I currently have two e-mails through Live.com and Hotmail.com, but I am unsure on how I should go about setting up this e-mail.
I have been trying to set up windows mail but i have no idea what im doing and it asks for some pop3 something or another...my usesrname/password, everything i type in is wrong. it asks me for the address for my pop3 watchamajiggy...what is all this? it tells me to ask my isp provider for this information but how do i do that? can somebody talk to me in english and not computer?
I use Gmail & my LSU email but I wanted to set up my emails to use Windows Mail. Can someone explain how I go about doing this? Or is it even worth it? Does Windows Mail cause headaches? Is there an advantage to it over email accounts set up with Gmail? If I do manage to set it up, is it possible to check my Windows Mail Inbox from another computer?
I wanted to either set up my yahoo account or hotmail account to windows mail. I also wanted to know how i can configure it in with my internet explorer so that way when I am trying to email someone it can just automatically pop up!
This is the other message that I keep getting Subject 'testing message', Account: 'LF', Server: 'smtp.secureserver.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '250 rblsmtpd.local', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 250, Error Number: 0x800CCC7D
My monitor is set at 1152 X 720 pixels. The default is 1440 x 900, but that makes everything so super tiny that I can't see text too well. Text size is set at default or standard. The Windows dialog boxes are all cut off so that at least one third of them cannot be seen. From using old Windows OS systems in the past, I can guess at what is unseen and just use the tab key to select "Ok, Cancel, and Apply".
But some boxes, for example, the "Sound Theme" dialog box has a whole section below of selecting sounds for events and I cannot see any of it.
Here's the clincher. Just to adjust my sound theme, I set my monitor to the microscopic 1440 x 900 setting and still cannot see the dialog boxes. The text size set on default.
What settings are these boxes viewable?
I should point out that my Sister and a couple of friends have the exact same problem.
Im having the same problem I see others have posted with, can recieve but cant send. I have Mail configured for my AOL account but cant send messages with optimum, Error message: The connection to the server has failed. ccount: 'Optimum', Server: 'mail.optonline.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
I just don't understand how to set up my windows live mail, for it asks me for (pop 3) incoming and( smtp) for out going mail. What do I put there, can someone walk me through it?
I tried this last night. I have four accounts. After setting up each account and using my ISP information, all email for all four accounts dumped in to the default account. What am I doing wrong please?
I am trying to set up my account and I have an aol email account. Aol says to use: The basic information that you need to setup using IMAP and POP3 is as follows: Your e-mail address is screenname@aol.com or screenname@aim.com. Be sure to include the @aol.com or @aim.com suffix. The incoming mail (POP) server address is: imap.aol.com and imap.aim.com for IMAP, and pop.aol.com or pop.aim.com for POP3. Check the box for leaving messages on the server. The outgoing mail (SMTP) server address is: smtp.aol.com or smtp.aim.com, port: 587. Your user name is your AOL or AIM screen name. Your password is your AOL?? or AIM?? password-------I typed all the fields up to the outgoing info. the box would no accept : smtp.aol.com, port 587.

I've had an account that has worked for a while now, but now when I try to email pictures or anything, I get a message that says no profile has been created... so I treid recreating my profile, and whenI get to the whole pop3 server thing, I get a message that says "Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection.

My present motherboard has 2 internal SATA connections which I use for my C and D drives, I wish to add another one for a new DVD player,Can this be accomplished by installing a special PCI card in a spare slot of my MB? What make do you recommend?
Ever want to keep track of the time in a different time zone? With Vista you can now track two additional time zones with mini clocks that show up when you hover the mouse over the clock.
Add additional time zones:
1. Right click on the clock in the taskbar and select Adjust Date/Time.
2. Click on the Additional Clocks tab.
3. Check the box for either additional clock 1 or 2 and select the time zone....
I am having major issues sending email. I am receiving messages, but cannot send anything out. Does anyone have an answer for this. I called Microsoft and they said it was a HP issue. They could help for $59, which I think is awful. I just purchased the computer yesterday an they are already pointing the finger at each other.
I have tried unsuccessfully to set up different signatures for the five email addresses I use. These addresses are used for five different interests. However I try I still get the signature for the default address whenever I click "Create Mail." The default email address is shown,with the default signature. When I change the outgoing email address in the address bar the signature shown is still the same. So I tried to use the Insert feature by unticking "always use signature etc" and clicking "insert" on the toolbar of the message. However the option to add signature is always greyed out.
I still cannot send emails with error message as follows: The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the "I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.
