06. May 2016 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail
Complaint to Microsoft and its Outlook.com Team!!!
 
Support your Damn Program or Windows Live Mail 2012 for Win 7 and Win 10!!!!!!!!!!!
How can you justify not supporting and changing WLM2012 to work with the new Outlook.com or protocol??????? I don't want to use the degraded Outlook Web Version on any web Browser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Why are you using this change or non-support of Win 7 and WLM2012 to force Users to upgrade to Win 10???????????????????????????  This is unfair and totally goes against promised User Support for Win 7 and WLM2012!!!!  Its an asinine forced change ( I paid MS for Hotmail.com Use!!!!!) on your long time Users of WLM2012 and Win 7, just to force Win 7 Users to upgrade to Win 10!!!!!!!!! Any Web version of Outlook is a mush degraded and slower version from WLM2012 and you or MS knows this!  Why not be fair to all your current Win 7  Users and just Upgrade WLF2012 to work with your new Protocol, which you are supposed to support much longer on Win 7 and on Win 10???????????????  I will now not ever Upgrade to Win 10 and will Post this Complaint everywhere I can, ie, Facebook and on Web Browsers and in Forums!  You have pissed off too many people who depend on and have depended on and use WLM2012 with Win 7 and also Win 10, if you would just upgrade WLM2012 to work with both!!  I tried and hate the new Mail App in Win 10 as it Sucks and I won't be forced to buy Office 365 Personal just to use its Email App!!!! Upgrade WLM2012 and STOP this crazy action to **** off all or very many Win 7 OS Users!!!!!

Dear User,
 
Earlier this year we introduced a new Outl‍ook‍.‍com that will help you collaborate with others, focus on what matters, and get more done. The new Outlo‍ok‍.‍com delivers an exciting set of new experiences across web, phone, and desktop, and we’re eager for you to start using it. 
 
 
It appears that you are currently using Windows Live Mail 2012 to connect to your Out‍look‍.‍com account. Windows Live Mail 2012 does not support the synchronization technologies used by the new Outl‍ook‍.‍com. When account upgrades begin at the end of June, you will no longer be able to receive email sent to your Out‍look‍.‍com account in Windows Live Mail 2012. Rest assured, you can always access your email by logging into Out‍look‍.‍com from any web browser, and you will continue to have access to all your data that is currently in Windows Live Mail 2012. 
 
 
If you currently use Windows Live Mail 2012, we recommend that you switch to the Mail app in Windows to‍day. The Mail app is built in to Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10, and has a more modern design. To begin using it, simply launch the app and add your Out‍look‍.‍com account. 
 
 
If you are using Windows 7, you can upgrade to a newer version of Windows to enjoy the Mail app and the other benefits. If you do not wish to upgrade, you can access your account via a web browser, or, you can take advantage of a free one-year subscription of Office 365 Personal, and use Outl‍ook 2016 to connect to your account.* This Off‍ice 365 subscription also includes other productivity applications such as Word, PowerPoint and Excel. It works on Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, and Windows 10. 
 
 
Please take action before Ju‍ne 30th, 2016, which is when we’ll begin upgrading accounts that currently use Windows Live Mail 2012. If you have more questions, please find answers to common FAQs in this help article, or you can contact Microsoft support. 
 
 
We recognize that changes like this can be difficult, and apologize for any inconvenience this causes you. We hope that you’ll enjoy the benefits of moving to the new Outl‍ook‍.‍com. 
 
 
Sincerely,
Outl‍ook‍.‍com team 
 
 
 
Microsoft

Tons Of Junk

Receiving tons of junk mail even at high privacy setting using windows live mail 2012. Can't divert all using 'safe senders only' as I get new senders all the time. Is there anything I can do? What good is paying for premium storage when you can't get past the junk that should be stopped at the server!!!!

WLM 2012 Contact replacement

06. May 2016 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail

With the imminent loss of Outlook.com access via WLM 2012, will this also mean that the Contacts listing will be lost? I use WLM for two other email addresses so the Contacts listing is important.

Alternatively, can I delete this list from WLM only, leaving it unchanged and in place on my Outlook.com account which I can manage from the W10 Mail app and from the web. I could then install a simple email address book for use in my other WLM controlled accounts.

Note: I would happily change all my accounts to the W10 Mail app but it has one serious deficiency ... no multiple Storage Folder possibilities. Is this going to be a feature?

Can I export emails to Windows 10 Built-In Mail App from Windows Live Mail?

06. May 2016 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail

Hello,

I have been using Windows Live Mail and have so much information in the Storage Folders which I need to keep and often refer to.

If I start using Windows 10 Built-In Mail App instead, I would like to export emails, the whole storage folders if possible, from Windows Live Mail to the Built-In Mail App.

Please let me know if and how I can do that.

Windows LiveMail 2012

06. May 2016 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail

Until recently my Live Mail 2012 worked fine on my Windows 10. Now it downloads Messages from my 2 providers ok, then attempts to 'Update all calendar events'  I then get a message 'Windows Live Mail has stopped working' Debug OR Close program, clicking either just closes Live Mail. I can just ignore the message and LiveMail works ok but I still have this big message box telling me it's stopped working.

How do you close down or prevent Calendar trying to Update Calendar events on opening Live Mail 2012. I'm running it in Windows 10.

Thank you
