As I said below...when I click on get.live.com I get taken to a site called " windows live", or LiveMessenger.Amigo bar, which is NOT what I want.... any help out there? Thanks..
Cannot get the same website that shows on the utube video. I get a Google list of other stuff that is not related to what I see on the video. How can I get the same website as I see on the video??
My hotmail was just attacked- they changed my password, got access to my contacts list of family, friends and customers and then sent everyone in my list an email that says I am in desperate need and I am in Europe and I need $2250 dollars immediately sent to me. Forums are full of hundreds of other windows live users with the same attacks as of July 30th, 2010. The Windows team says it was "down for maintenance" but they really got hacked and are to afraid to tell everyone.
@LuxuriousLuxembourg Yahoo mail will not work unless you have the yahoo plus subscription and it's $19.99 per year. No mail client will work with out one.
@johnnyrelie Thank you for that, I guess I will start making Gmail and live/hotmail. accounts from now on then. Thank you, damn you yahooooooo i had them for over 15 years.
I really hate Windows Live so far. Seems to have too many bugs, such as drafts disappearing after they're saved. Also when you send a message, even though you DON'T have send messages automatically checked, it sometimes seems to send them after a few seconds anyway.
And during the times when I "can" grab them back again in the few seconds before it sends, I can't edit them after opening them because there's no edit key.
This will probably be a nice program one day but don't like it yet.
I just installed Windows 7 and had no choice but to install a third party email. I happen to like this a lot better than Thunderbird...and I am a long time Mozilla supporter. I'm just wondering where my "send/receive" button is.
Thanks, I did figure it out after I posted this messege. I can only speak for myself but I prefer hotmail these days over a pop account for the simple reason of having a back up for all my mail, address book and calender. I can format my PC re-install windows and Live mail and it's like it was always there
thanks for the video man. ihave had this pc for 2 years and i just found out how to use windows mail. I had to wacth all those other B***S*** vids before finding yours thxxx!!!
Is there any way to configure Windows Live Mail in such way that it makes possible to work with Gmail folders (make them visible in Windows Live Mail)?
Hi har1f, I think I managed to do this by going into my gmail account and renaming all my labels so that they begin with '[Gmail]/' (assuming you followed the instructions above). Now when I refresh the folder in Windows Live Mail, it picks up all the gmail folders and your filters set in gmail should continue to work...let me know if this is the same for you as I'm only just trying this.
thanks for the great video..one small problem, whenever I delete a mail from inbox (Gmail) the mail goes to 'All Mail' instead of 'Trash'..how do I fix that?
If it uses the Hotmail interface you should be able to use it without issue in this client - however I can't confirm that because I don't have an e-mail that ends in msn. Hotmail and Live are however confirmed to work. The worst thing that could possibly happen is that it won't accept the e-mail login, so try it and see what happens.
Well at least Microsoft finally delivered a newer version of the Outlook Express client in the form of Windows Live Mail. Mozilla Thunderbird needs to do some catch-up. Their client is older and uses *way* too much system resource for just e-mail.
excellent video thanks fopr the help

jackmarshak 2 years ago
Send/Receive is now "Sync" Jack, although I'm not sure if Sync sends mail it does retrieve it.
Very helpful video pcmedianet.
One question though, what are the benefits in using IMAP instead of POP3?
I see a lot of email client tut vids with people using IMAP but it's never said why.
Thanks

It's the default skin that comes with the client. You can change the colors similar to the way you can in Windows Media Player 11.
