On one of the newsgroups I subscribe to, there is a member who sends a lot of 'off topic' messages, but they are always properly identified in the subject line with an "OT:" Is there way to filter out any messages that contain just the 'OT:' in the subject line?

In Live Mail 2011, how can I copy a note I’m *currently* writing into the drafts folder?

I can use the options to "send later" and then go to the outbox and copy it to the drafts folder, but I can't find how to do it directly. 

This "email topic" isn't available on the drop-down menu; so, I might be in the wrong place.

Thank you!

My emails and responses are being "stacked". I want them to show individually in the inbox. How do I stop them from "stacking"?

My Inbox has changed.  It used to be that each message that came in was shown separately in the inbox.  Now emails on the same subject are all kept together under one entry.  I have missed several incoming emails because of this.  They don't show up in the inbox if another email has come in on the same topic.  When I try to delete one email in the series, they are ALL deleted.  I want them separate the way they used to be.

I cannot reply to any of my messages

This has been happening for at least a week. I used to just hit reply or reply all and the sender's name and topic would be filled in, along with the message I'm replying to. Lately, I get a blank email form, no names, topic or message, and even if I hit the "To" button to pull up my contacts, I cannot access my contacts ... nothing happens. I use Firefox and have not previously had a problem. I noticed the display for my Contacts has changed. Does this have anything to do with it? Are you updating the way Hotmail works?

Is Windows Live Mail dead?

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

I check the "Formus" box, the "Product" box, and the "Topic" box.

Nowhere do I see any reference to "Windows Live" or "Windows Live Mail"

Are "Windows Live Mail" and its "Support" and its "Issues" Dead?

My Hotmail Calendar no longer sends email notifications.

Where is the troubleshooting log saved in the directory for Windows Live Mail?

29. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , ,

Hello. If there is another forum where this topic belongs, please advise in which it should be. I use 64-bit Win7.  In Windows Live Mail program, Options>Advanced>Maintenance, there is a section for choosing to create a log for troubleshooting. Where does the log get put, and what size will it reach? I am actually interested in the log for News, not Mail, but I expect that they are both saved in the same place.Thanks.

Outlook will not default to work address

I have a similar problem - I can't get Outlook on my MAC to default to my work address even though it is listed as the default. Urghhhh!

[This was posted under "How can I set up a different signature for email replies in outlook for Mac?"and has nothing to do with signatures. Moving to it's own topic.]
