Due to sending issues with my aol and gmail accounts, I uninstalled and reinstalled Windows Live Mail.  Gmail was set up ok but aol will not.  I keep getting a message indicating that the aol server has unexpectedly terminated the connection.

My individual aol account is working fine.

I have set the incoming server to imap 993 and the outgoing to smtp 587.  Why do I continue to have problems.  I have a Gateway NE 722 laptop with Windows 8.1 Pro.

Thanking you for any assistance you can give me.

I have installed (uninstalled and reinstalled) Windows Essentials and I have had several problems.  I cannot seem to get the email to consistently send mail from my AOL and Gmail accounts using Windows Live email? 

I have tried to change the ports for outgoing messages but that has not worked.  Also, have repeatedly gone in to repair Windows Essentials.

Now I find out I cannot print any email messages directly from the individual AOL or Gmail accounts?  I have tested the printer and it is working from using other sources.

I have Windows 8.1 operating system.

Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

  1. I have used Live Mail (currently 2012) as a mailer for several years with a few Contact Categories set up by myself and working well.  This week I changed (for spam reasons) my default account from AOL to Gmail changing from POP3 to IMAP4.  Within 48 hours a number of new categories were added to my Contacts list.  They were accurately filled (e.g. Family, Legal etc.).  The Contacts have not been synchronized with Gmail.
  2. I discovered that Remote Desktop had been enabled at some time unknown to me. Perhaps I missed it when updating to Windows 7 from Vista.
  3. I do not have JAWS nor any other intelligent text scanner (other than OCR) installed.
  4. I have full-scanned and Power-Erased the root under Norton repeatedly over the last twenty days.
  5. I like the result but I do not know how it was achieved.  If OK I like it.  If not, scarey! 

An IT friend suggested that I may have been hacked and a new app installed for testing.  I cannot find it.

I have a new laptop, and upgraded to Windows 8.1.

But from the very start I keep getting

"Windows Live Mail

Some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks...

Unable to send or receive messages for the Aol (jeremypssm) account. Header download for the 'Drafts' folder did not complete.

Could not complete. Could not download new messages from the IMAP server.

Server Response: The server did not respond to the IMAP command before the connection was terminated.

Server 'imap.aol.com'

Windows Live Mail Error lD:0x800CCC0F

Protocol: IMAP

Port: 143

Secure (SSL): No"


What's going on? And how can I prevent this from continually appearing?

Help would be much appreciated!

This refers to win 8.1:  I accumulate 3 e-mail addresses under the mail app in the start window. I cannot select which service to use when sending mail. The addresses are AOL, YAHOO, HOTMAIL.  Everything sent defaults to HOTMAIL which is used only for work items. AOL is my friends mail, and YAHOO is

from my dsl provider.


How do I select which is to be used to send.


Vista allowed me that option, but not 8.1


If this continues I will have to change my browser to ATT or AOL

I activated Outlook to be able to read an attachment that was sent to me. Now all my AOL e-mails end up in Outlook & my New & Old e-mail folders in AOL are empty. Each time a new e-mail comes in, it transfers to Outlook. How do I reverse this? & how do I recover all of my Old e-mails?
Is there any way to move my saved email folders from AOL to outlook? I have 20+ folders with 20+ emails in each, so going through and forwarding them, as suggested in other places, just isn't a great option. Thanks in advance for your help.
