- Windows live mail 2012 for windows 10

 

Send emails, read news feeds, and stay connected to the web, this are the main advantages of the Windows Live Mail client from Microsoft. Those of you that use a dedicated mail client, know that Windows Live Mail tries to offer a complete email solution to the regular user. Nowadays, these types of products are built to offer more than the standard e-mail function. For example, Windows Live Mail , also features a calendar, that lets you synchronize your events with your Windows Live account, a detailed contact list, and a news feed reader, that lets you stay informed with what happens in the world.

The program is very easy to install, although, it does take a couple of minutes for the operation to complete. Fortunately, setting up the e-mail client can be done in just a couple of seconds, after you have entered your email credentials, you are basically done. A certain plus is given by the fact that you can setup up the client to receive emails from multiple accounts, such as Gmail, Yahoo!

More than that, you will be able to explore all your emails or calendar events even in offline mode. Windows Live Mail also lets the user customize the way it displays your information. You can activate the different available panels, change your account colors, modify the sort order, activate the conversation mode or filter your messages.

The filter option can be quite useful if you want to receive only certain e-mails, or only messages from certain users. To wrap it up, Microsoft manages to offer you a tool that can easily send emails, keep track of all your events via the calendar, and stay updated with the latest news with the help of the feed reader, through the Windows Live Mail client.

I guess they can make Mail app as good as Outlook, then not many need to buy Outlook. My wife still users the Live client.

I use Outlook Outlook online, best always feel like working on the actual server. Till you don't have a net connection, then your screwedd. Got the email about this today.

I love how they recommended using the built in Mail app on W10 yet mine still refuses to sync on it's own no matter what I do. Works good on mobile but not desktop. Check permissions in system settings. I've checked just about everywhere. Mail initially syncs on it's own when my PC 1st boots up and then almost never after that. I have it set to sync hourly. I've checked all the sync settings, Privacy Mail and Calendar settings, etc.

Not sure where else to look. On W10 Desktop there is no Mail app listed here at all. Maybe I need to do a clean install of W10 on my PC. Trying to avoid that. Scroll through the alphabetical listings to find these.

You can pin each one to your task bar by doing a right-click on the app, itself, and sliding down to Move and over to "pin to taskbar. Same with Calendar if you have events and appointments, for example and People to get contact info about them.

Anyone wanting an email client similar to Windows Live Mail , that is, that can handle several email accounts [I have 4 and my Windows Live stopped working when it was open and my computer crashed.

I had to do a hard shutdown and reboot on 27 March I can no longer get it to work no matter what I do to uninstall, reinstall, repair] you might want to give eM Client at www. It can read all Windows Live Mail folders and saved emails automatically.

You will still need the People app in Win 10, however, to reconstruct your contacts in eM Client - it does not pull those in. It will also work with most mail servers but those using Comcast.

The port eM Client wants to use will not allow any outgoing mail from it. Googles GMail works just fine - not issues. Hope this info helps someone down the line Glad they aren't killing it altogether. I'd use Windows 10's built-in email client, but the lack of a unified inbox is a killer.

It's doable on WP10 mobile, though but barely. I hate how all the new mail clients are removing the ability to delete multiple msgs with select all. This is the only reason I like the old clients better. Too often my inbox gets cluttered because I have no way to delete msgs I don't care to read. Btw, the update they're doing also borks custom domain accounts. They put my dad on the preview and he can only get his mail over there web now. Problem is widespread Can you explain that a little further?

I haven't read anything or received any notice about changes in custom domain accounts other than the discontinuation of Live Admin Center for domain management. I have my personal email on a custom domain and it's working fine but I upgraded my OnePlus One a few days ago phone to Marshmallow and yesterday I noticed that outgoing emails take some minutes or even hours to get sent.

A week ago in Lollipop I didn't have that problem. I don't know if it's related to the changes you talked about or just a problem with Exchange Services itself or within Marshmallow. Unfortunately this article just quoted a part of what I think is a communication from Microsoft but didn't provide a link to the source. I can't find anything about it searching the web either.

Not many people actually want to use the outlook office app as its just an absurd mess of stupid settings and user unfriendlyness and unnecessary complexity, the new metro mail app is just as unusable for the opposite reasons.

WLM just freaking works, and gives ppl exactly what they want without hiding anything away and without needing a phd to understand. I agree completely with your comments. I ran this update and now Live Mail crashes when I start it. Thanks Microsoft. And oh look, Outlook doesn't know how to import Live Mail messages, so I have to go through all kinds of hassle to get my email back. I'm more than a little angry right now.

Thanks for the heads up. Right now it doesn't sync hourly like it should. I had the same problem as you , but I found that if I uninstalled Live Mail and re install it works again ,just dont run the patch.

All your mail should still be there. Another here who has WLM crash after installing this. Probably have to uninstall and reinstall. I ran the update and all the message I had in various folders disappeared completely! Fortunately they were still on the server - or so I thought.

I just found out last night that only most of them are still on the server. And apparently there is not rhyme or reason to which ones remained on the server and which ones did not. Also, some of my messages that came in yesterday appeared in my WLM inbox are not appearing on the server, even though they should be - and there are some messages on the server in two separate locations and I cannot delete them from one of the locations where they do not belong.

I did manage to import some of the older folders back to my WLM program, however those messages and folders will now only appear under the Storage Folders and I cannot move any new messages to those folders. So, in order to organize new incoming message, I have to re-create folders with the same names under the Inbox and if I want to find a message I now have to look in that folder or in the folder under Storage Folders which defeats the purpose of trying to organize things.

Needless to say I am in the process of finding a new email program because I have 3 email addresses that I manage at one time and then an email address for my mother that I manage. Having a program such as WLM made that better than switching from live.

Here the link has been expired or removed the file. The Mail app is grossly inadequate. After Microsoft's update wrecked my Live Mail install I took a look at Mail for the first time in over a year.

It's gotten better. Where it used to be laughably primitve it is now merely inadequate. There didn't appear to be any way to create your own folders of to import existing Live Mail messages, something you'd think would be a major function for getting people to switch over. I wasn't using Outlook portion of Office becaus eit was overkill for my needs and used a lot more resources as a result. But I suppose I have no choice. Live mail til the end! I just installed this update because I like Live Mail and its totally killed it.

I can no longer access any of my email accounts from any provider as the client simply says it has stopped working and closes. I either have to go through the hassle of uninstalling it and trying again in the hope it doesn't kill it or switch to outlook which I really don't like.

The new mail program in W10 doesn't appear to meet my needs. I can't change the pane layout at all, just apply stupid colours and pictures to the background that frankly I don't need to read my mail. Time to reinstall lIve mail for all my non microsoft accounts. I have one account affected by this stupid change so that account can go through the stupid app. I'm keeping live un updated and working for accounts I actually use regularly.

The folder options are a joke in W10 app. Installed this supposedly necessary update and now I can't view my emails in Windows Live Mail Thanks Microsoft for nothing. I am not upgrading to 10 for as long as I can. I did system restore and I still cannot read emails. I am Furious! Try uninstall, then reboot and install Windows Live Essentials with Windows live mail and that should work.

After the patch, WLM will not stop crashing once it gets to updating my Outlook. I can't find any free alternatives that do even half as good of a job as WLM.

I tried Thunderbird, but its calendar support is terrible. I guess I'll move to Outlook since I already paid for it It's just overkill. Same here. It was crashing when "updating calendar" upon launch.

I uninstalled WLM and then reinstalled the reinstalled version does not have the patch. I am good for now, but this is just a temporary fix, unless MS fixes the patch before the Outlook. I officially switched over to Windows 10's new mail app. It's better than I thought it would be. Next best free option out there to WLM, it seems. I'm also suffering from the crash after upgrade on Windows Not impressed.

It took a couple of hours before the latest emails displayed correctly initially only the stub of the email would show but is now working correctly even without doing the Run As Adminstrator thing. I wonder whether those who have the issue are like me and have thousands of emails in their inbox and folder structure - I must have around 30, mails or more.

The Windows Live Mail update is now managing to receive emails, but it still isn't managing to show recent sent messages. Same problem here. Installed the update, now the calendar stopped working. The calendar seems empty, when I start to click around WLM crashes.

I don't want to update to Windows Windows 7 works perfect for me, once I tried Win 8. You know, never change a running system The update worked okay for me. At least with WLM, I can have all my various email accounts going into one place. If Microsoft are dumb enough to stop supporting WLM which seems to be the way it's going and trying to force people on to mail, I will simply switch to using something like Thunderbird. I've already switched to Firefox and Open Office because their supposed innovations to IE and Office just make those programmes worse.

Microsoft do seem to be persuing a strange business plan, which is to annoy as many people as possible with their new products. They want us all to upgrade to Windows 10 for example , but can't make it do something as simple as keep your information private even if you set all the privacy settings to, in effect, "none of your business", it will still send data back to Microsoft.

Dude, are you f'n kidding me? I never liked Outlook because it never seemed user friendly enough. Window Essentials Live Mail was the shiznit as far as I was concerned. Now they want to do away with it and literally force us to just deal with using what is provided with Windows. I am livid. Where is the support for Outlook?

I received an email stating that Microsoft will discontinue Windows Essential Live Mail and is forcing us to use Outlook. Ok fine, Outlook is not syncing with my Hotmail or Live Mail account folders. It sees them but says there is nothing found. I literally have hundreds of emails, important account info emails from all sorts of vendors, saved on the Windows Essential version of Live Mail. What the heck am I supposed to do so I don't lose all that important info?

What are you going to do to fix the situation so I don't loose that information? If I lose any of those important emails there will be heck to pay. Obviously I am not happy, the Windows Live Essentials was the better email app like it or not.

So now what do I do in order to not lose my important info? Oh and by the way, the update did not work for me. Crash, Crash, Crash!!! This sucks! I did the update. Wish I didn't. Now none of the emails are coming in.
