Unable to send or receive my Live mail. I receive the above error message.  I originally did have a stuck forward email from an added ATT email (but live was still working)  I deleted that email, and removed the account. I have since been unable to get this account again.  Mostly due to no proper set up instructions available, which is different now with the v12. That's unimportant at this time.  Following instructions elsewhere for this problem, I upgraded Windows essentials to v 12.  That didn't help.

My concern is for the live email which is my main account.  I added a "new" account, for live, had it automatically configured, and it worked until I deleted the original account, or maybe it wouldn't have worked again, anyway.  I recently upgraded internet explorer to v11, some weeks ago.  I have had live essential "fix a repair" twice. 

This is on my desktop, win 7 64 bit.  I've seen lots of others with the same problem, and none of the answers I've seen , have helped.

This looks like Live does not recover correctly from an error, but in any case, Help, please.
