How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. In reply to Canadian Tech's post on November 18, There are several ways to backup WLM. Backup the stored mail items themselves Backup your contact information Save a copy of the WLM data folder. There is no backup available for the calendar function. Navigate to the new folder, OK Open that new folder Delete the entire contents of that folder Copy the entire contents of the folder you backed up to that new folder Open WLM and Bob's your uncle.
Create another folder inside your backup drive folder for this entire backup and name it email yourname dd-mm-yy Open the address book Contact list portion of Windows Live Mail On the top towards the right, find the Export icon.
Choose comma separated values Click the browse button and navigate to your external hard drive folder for this backup and create yet another folder named address book yourname dd-mm-yy. On the next screen choose which data elements to backup. I choose them all Windows Live Mail is no longer supported by Microsoft. Now, make backing up that folder a regular part of your regular backup procedure, in addition to the above steps To move it: With WLM open, click on the little blue rectangle with the arrow in it on the top left of the WLM window Click on Options then Mail, the Advanced tab, Maintenance, Store folder Click the Change button.
A navigation list of your hard drive pops up. Now navigate to the C: line, click once on it. Close WLM When you next open WLM, it will take longer because that is when it actually moves your mail folder The reason you should do this is that in the future you will be following the back up procedure above, BUT also you will be backing up that Mail folder to your external hard drive as well. Type indexing options into the text box above the start globe Click Modify and add your new Windows Live Mail folder.
Suggestions for cleaning out your mail folders. Click that and it selects and deletes all in that folder Don't keep email with big attachments.
Thanks for all the info, I am doing the cleaning now. Appreciate you! Change the font: Click the tiny little blue box on the top left Choose Options, Mail Choose the Compose tab There you can change the font of the email you are preparing. I use 14pt Arial bold Choose the Read tab, then Fonts to change the fonts in the folders Email is kind of weird because the fonts that a sender uses to prepare their email is not really changeable by anyone but them Keep in mind the Fabulous trick: You can zoom in or out of the contents of MOST windows by holding the Ctrl key down and rolling the wheel on your mouse.
In reply to Canadian Tech's post on November 21, I presume this is a Windows 7 system?? In reply to Canadian Tech's post on November 28, Thanks CarrrmasDad2. Schedule and manage appointments, meetings, or events. See details about contacts when you hover over their name.
Prioritize your tasks with Microsoft To Do. Locate messages, people, and documents. Your response as well as Diane's has allowed me to pretty much correct all of my Live Mail problems!! You guys are great!!! Thank you very much!!! One piece of information that would be helpful if it is even possible Now when I send an email, I have to change the sender on each one to my new gmail. If I forget it won't send.
Is there a way to make my new gmail account the default sender? Right now the default is my old account. I am trying to stop automatic forwarding of the Comcast emails to the old Centurylink account, as they bounce back and confuse people. I have a major problem with Windows Live Mail that I need to resolve. I did a Windows Chat session and was told they discontinued support. I am trying to find out where to go for support.
