My hotmail live.com email suddenly went to Outlook Express  - I do not want Outlook, and I do not want the "suggested adds" section that accompanies this.  I believe this happened when Chase Bank online started up for me today, and without informing me also connected to my cellphone.  I do not want tech clutter, and try to keep a clean system with only what I choose to use. 

Syncing my Windows Live email account with my Outlook 2011 on my Mac

12. December 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , ,
I am using Outlook 2011 for Mac and would like to add my Window Live email account to my mailbox in outlook. Once added, I can receive my email in outlook but am unable to send outgoing mail through outlook - the error that comes up is saying 'The server does not support secure connections'. I have configured the SMTP with "25" as it is suggested I do by Microsoft but I know this setting is optimized for Outlook Express. How do I get this working correctly allowing me to use outlook for all my email accounts?

Is there a risk downloading Live Mail on older XP machine?

08. December 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Our home PC is older running Windows XP, as well as IE 8 with Outlook Express.

Love Outlook Express!  Our home users all use that still.

But I realize that when our old PC dies soon, we will be getting Windows 8.  I have another personal laptop running Windows 7 and IE 10, so begrudgingly getting used to Live Mail for email on that machine (and getting used to Windows 8 on my new Surface, but it has a useless mail app). 

Seems like I read a lot of problems experienced by XP systems downloading Live Mail.  And in fact, it doesn't list XP as a supported system.  But it would be nice if I could do that on our old PC, because other household users besides myself could get used to it and transfer data, before the machine dies.

Of course, I'm thinking that Live Mail can store information in the cloud, so it's easy to set up a new machine? Is that true, or is information stored only on the machine?

Anyhow, should I try and download it to XP, too much risk to bother with it?

Tengo una pequeña empresa y necesito enviar muchos correos. Ahora intento usa el Outlook Express, lo he configurado pero no puedo enviar mensajes me dice que "el servidor finalizo inesperadamente, la conexión  puede tener problemas". Cuenta "hotmail" servidor "SMTP.LIVE.COM" protocolo : SMTP, puerto:25, seguridad (SSL) : no Nº error. 0x800ccc0F. He llamado a telefónica y me dice que no es problema de ellos que contacte con hotmail. El problema es que no se como ponerme en contacto con ellos y necesito poder enviar correos de forma urgente y masivos. He configurado los puertos de entrada y salida de mil maneras y no lo consigo. Muchas gracias de antemano.
 

I want to turn off messenger so that it does not load at startup. I don’t use it at all. So how do I do that? Running Windows 7. New machine 3 weeks old.

Just got a new computer, Windows 7.   No longer have Outlook Express for e-mail, so in setting up Windows Live Mail, I also got Windows Messenger.  So now it loads at Start-Up.  I have been unable to find any method to keep it from doing so.  It's just that every time I start the computer, I have to click it off because I will not use Instant Messenger.  Thanks for any help.  

Where is the "Receive" button?

I maybe stupid asking this but after using Outlook Express for the past 8 years on my old XP computer i find using Windows Live hotmail on my new Windows 8 machine somewhat baffling at times. I cannot seem to find a way of asking for any new e mails on demand and find myself just having to wait for as and when i get them delivered, any pointers please.

Attachment Blocking – Windows Live Email

22. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , , , ,
Windows Live email is blocking even .doc files.  I appreciate the  reason for blocking potentially dangerous file extensions -- but why a .doc file?  Is it because I'm using Open Office and not MSWord? I'm new to Windows 8 and Windows email (a lifelong Outlook Express user) and am experiencing some growing pains.   Help!!

I am "trying" to use Hotmail exclusively but my address as sent to others is my old Outlook Express one, NOT my Hotmail address. This is causing endless confusion. Help!

Have Outlook Express up and running on XP PC, but use only as a backup.  Primarily using Win7 on newer PC and Hotmail (or is Hotmail just another name for Windows Live?  Or the reverse?  Everything sent from from Win7 PC (Hotmail) appears as though it was being sent from OE and has old e-mail address, which causes endless confusion as return mail is not coming to this PRIME Hotmail Address, but to OE on backup PC.

Need a way to delete duplicate contacts

02. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , , , ,
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?
