I've been having exactly the same problem for the last few days. I can't send or receive email with Live Mail from my Hotmail account. Other pop3 accounts work fine and I can log directly into my Hotmail account and send and receive email, but when I use Live Mail I get the following error:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail account.

Server Error: 3204
Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE20003

I tried dropping and re-adding the account in Live Mail, but it didn't make any difference. When I check my online activity report in Hotmail it shows that I'm connecting successfully from Internet Explorer, but clearly, I'm not. All of these attempts resulted in the error above:

Successful sign-in (14 events)Today 8:52 PM - 9:23 PMUnited States

I have two PC's running Windows Live Mail and would like them both to use a common data file on One Drive so both PC's have common email messages.  I can relocate the Windows Live Mail Store Folder for one PC onto the One Drive and it works fine.  However, when I try to change the Store Folder on the second PC to use the new one on the One Drive I get an error message telling me the folder is not empty and I must create a new empty folder on the One Drive for the second PC.  This second folder would leave me with different email on each PC.

Can you help me or tell me I cannot achieve what I want to do?  I have Windows 7 on both PC's.

I had been using Windows Live Mail 2011 for many years. It was part of a package, I think, called Windows Essentials (included Family Safety, Writer, etc.) Last month I had to reset my pc to factory settings.  Now, I cannot find Windows Live Mail 2011. In fact, I am seeing information that is saying Microsoft is no longer allowing its use. Of course I have the current Outlook.com, and I am aware that it can now accept multiple email programs (as I had with Mail 2011).  Can I have the additional Mail program or Live Mail with Windows Vista now? Where do I download it or do I just need to set Windows Mail as the default program on Vista now? Will everything from Mail Live 2011 integrate/transfer to a current Mail program? I really want that same look and format as Windows Mail 2011.

This problem started yesterday when I had one message in my mail account that I could not access nor delete. I went on the Microsoft web site and found what I thought was a solution. I applied the fix, now it is much worse than having just one small problem, I am having non working email problem.

I get above mentioned error and nothing I try seems to work.

I have closed my virus checker, did a windows repair, tried a system refresh, tried the fix re corrupted message data base, restarted my computer many times but the problem remains

Hopefully someone knows how to fix this

I have windows 7 and windows live mail.  I receive email but when I try to send a message, I receive an error message that states, " Message not sent because the server will not recognize your email."  I have called the server ( Cox-in N VA) and they went through their checks and referred me to Microsoft.  I realize that this is probably a minor problem for most folks but I am at wits end.  Thanks for any information.

I have Windows Live Mail installed in Windows 8.1 and three POP email addresses. Recently, three times, all my additional folders have mysteriously disappeared along with all my emails. Most of the emails from the last few months then reappear unopened in the three Inbox's. However many important emails that were saved in the vanished folders seem to have gone forever! This problem has only occurred since I upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1. and I have used Live Mail for several years before without any problems. Is Live Mail not compatible with Windows 8.1? If not what do you recommend? Please help!! - Guy.

I'm receiving emails in Windows Live Mail but cannot read them, or they won;t open, in the read pane.  I have used Microsoft Safety Scan, Norton 360, and SpyHunter to scan, with no results.  I don't remember doing anything to precipitate this.  My primary browser is Chrome.

My home computer grabs my Google "sent" and "received" mail when sent from home computer.  But, it won't capture and post the sent email on my Windows Life Mail when the message is sent from my business computer.  Windows 7.  Any suggested settings?  Thank you. 
I have an Iphone 5S and a windows laptop running windows live mail. If I put in an event in windows calendar it will sync to my Iphone but when I put in an event on my Iphone calendar it will not sync to my laptop. All mail and everything works well. Thanks

Lately every time I use the windows live mail application to send mail instead of the mail going to whom I send the mail is sent to myself and arrives in my inbox as if the person I was sending the email to was the sender.  I have no idea how this could be happening but it is intensely weird
