How come my Yahoo contacts appear offline in the Messenger client window even they are online?

Outlook has timeout errors connectng to a pop3 server continually, whilst mac mail, thunderbird and any other mail client I download has no trouble. 

Usual error is the old sever may be busy or high network load rubbish.

Especially if the pop3 server has more than 1000 msgs but not limited to this. 

I am ready to give up on Outlook and go back to Mac Mail (despite the inferior junk filter!)  Any ideas ?
I updated skype to version 6 yesterday .  This morning i was invited to a group chat by a colleague using messenger.   I never got the invite but i was listed in the group chat on her box.  Worse, Skype 6 deleted Messenger from my box so there was no way for me to join the chat.  when i tried to join the chat on my phone, the phone client could not see the group chat either.  Is this a bug in the integration or do i need to enable something on my end?

thanks.

Hi, 

i was instructed to redirect my issue to this forum

it seems like there is restricted access to my account. i am not able to use windows live mail ( desktop client ) to sign in and read mails the only way i can access it is my going via outlook.com. I am also not able to log in via my android phone, i am using the official hotmail app but with no success

 

when i try to log in via windows live mail i receive the following error :

Server Error: 3206
Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE00002

perhaps this is useful.

could you please look into whether my account access has been restricted in some way.

the account is (remove PII)

thanks

 

Dear All,

 

Need help in migrating Windows live mail 2011 emails to Microsoft Outlook 2010 Professional.

a. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit newly configured.

b.  I am using the default Windows Live Mail 2011 pre installed with  the OS.

c. Installed MS Outlook 2010 Professional.

 

Encountered Problem.

I followed the instruction on how to migrate emails from Windows Live Mail to MS outlook unfortunately I am receiving errors.

1.  Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please Run MS Outlook and set it as default mail Client.

2. The export could not be performed an error occured while initializing the MAPI.

 

Corrective Action.

1. Set the MS outlook as the default Mail Client.

2. Checked the Registry Key ( HKEY_ Local_ Machine\ Software\Clients\Mail  = Default :Microsoft Outlook ; PreFirstRun: Either there is no default mail client or current mail client cannot fulfill......

3. Uninstalled and Re install MS Outlook and perform the export of windows live mail to ms outlook.  The same error appears.

 

Need your professional Help and Thanks in advance.

When Windows Live Messenger is officially retired sometime in 2013, what does that mean ?

Will all versions of the Messenger client...

   ...  not be able to Logon ?

 ... not see their Contacts ?

 ... not be able to send and receive text-based IM messages ?

Or does it mean that the software will not be updated after that, but any Accounts still "living in the old Messenger world" will still be able to talk to each other using IM ?

Thanks

I use an internet service provider (Cox Communications) for my email and the Windows 8 Windows Live Mail client (just upgraded from Windows XP and Outlook Express).   I have many duplicates in Contacts, spent hours deleting and when I logged back in, they had all returned.  I don't use Hotmail nor do I want to.  I actually keep my 'good' list of contacts in gmail as that seems to be the only thing I can figure out and which seems to work.   But I'd like to be able to delete the 5000 contacts in the Windows Live Mail Contact folder and start over.  Any solution to this?
HI guys,
I'm trying to set up outlook for a client on their mac.
the version of outlook is 2011 for mac. it is with an exchange server. I am setting this up on an internal network. (using a VPN with VPN Tracker 6)
I have internet connectivity though the VPN and can Ping the mail server's URL.

However,
whenever I try to send/receive with outlook, I get error -17199

what am i missing?
Good Afternoon

We are using outlook 2011, 14.2.3
i was using a client side rule to move a message once it arrives.
Now that we are using office 365 i can no longer create a client side rule to move a message, so i created a server side rule to do the same thing.
That worked fine, however this was just a test.
so i disabled (not deleted)the rule within outlook 2011 and the next time i went into tools Menu, rules
The rule had disappeared, very odd.

Any ideas where this rule went?

Thanks
