I have Windows 8.1 and Windows Live mail 2012 and did the upgrade to KB3093594, but now for the last several days Live Mail can't send or receive ANY emails from Any of my accounts; all I get are my feeds.

Looking on Google, there are many, many people with all kinds of different problems with Live Mail that they are trying to resolve themselves, with little success.

What is going on?!! Why did Microsoft issue this to SOLVE a problem when all it does is cause all kinds of new ones?

I refuse to use the Mail App that comes in 8.1 since it can't do squat when it comes to me keeping a copy of my emails on my home computer and forces me to log in to Microsoft which I am not going to do!

Some have found that Live Mail still works without the update, but needs a reinstall of Live Mail 2012 to make it work. I don't want to have to re-set up 5 different email accounts and the hundreds and hundreds of feeds that I have set, all over again, just because Microsoft can't get it right and make this work like it's suppose to.

Any suggestions??
