My Windows LiveMail has been have increasing problems receiving messages (it's like it's trying repeatedly to connect with my server and can take several hours before it downloads messages from it) but finally has stopped receiving all together. I can still send. I've been using Windows LiveMail via Windows 7 for about a year. I also don't know how to empty my deleted messages and junk mail folders. Grateful for any help on both matters -- and maybe they're related?

Thanks,
Moira
