Every now and then the Restore option for (any) maximized WLM window is grayed out. In order to restore WLM windows I must execute a System Restore. Whey does this happen, and how can I prevent it? Is there another way out aside from System Restore?
I have repeatedly encountered the distressing phenomenon whereby a WLM draft that I've saved refuses to open. The error message is "A problem has occurred. Please try again." Trying again (many times, over an extended period) does no good. Why is this happening, and is there any way to get these messages to open? Or is there a way to prevent the error?

Archive  folders I created to store improtant emails have disappeared!

I have tried the "restore deleted emails" option which has not helped so do not ask me to do that ,

Please advise urgently.

I have WLM 2011 and Windows 7. I use IMAP with my business email.  I have been using this for 1.5 years. In the last few days messages have been disappearing from only this account, not my other email accounts with Earthlink. Nearly all of my sent messages have disappeared and each morning I look at my inbox and most of the messages have disappeared, but not all.

I get my email on my phone and the IMAP setting say to not delete from the server. My WLM settings say not to delete, show all messages, etc.

I have not changed any of my settings, but my emails are disappearing. What is going on? Please help.

Hi there

WLM retrieves mail from all previous email addresses including a previous hotmail.com address but I recently got a new hotmail.com and it won't sync it at all - it just says WLM is synchronising this account, please check again in a few minutes.... but nothing ever changes.

Can you help me with this at all please.  I'm getting very frustrated. 

Cheers

I am running WLM 2012 on Windows 8.1. All has been fine, but recently any new mail remaining in the inbox from my POP3 account has been deleted when exiting the program. Any email which has been moved to deleted or junk are retained.

Would be grateful of any thoughts or ideas on this. I have checked all of the obvious options and preferences settings for WLM and the email account.

I am using Windows Live Mail 2010 on a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit machine.

1) Is there any benefit in upgrading to Windows Essentials 2012 Mail?

2) Is there any fundamental difference between the two? Do I gain anything?

3) If I install WE2012 Mail, can I safely and reliably import all of my existing mail and contacts?

4) Is the email storage location and format in WE2012 Mail the same as in WLM 2010?

5) Are contacts stored in the same location on the hard drive?

6) It has always been annoying that in WLM when I open a collapsed folder tree, the focus jumps back to the top of the list rather than staying on the folder I just expanded. This generally happens the first time you expand a collapsed folder; but it can be totally random. When you collapse and expand the folder again, the focus does not change. Does WE2012 Mail behave the same way?

I use Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3528.0331) of WLM.  The Blocked Senders page (under Safety Options) refers to a user option to "Delete and block"—yet I cannot find that option anywhere. Can I delete and block with one action? If so, how?
