Problems sending/receiving when switching from Windows Live Mail back to Windows Mail
I am trying to switch back to Windows Mail from Windows Live Mail. My
settings are exactly the same in both app's, but when I manually click on
"Send/Receive" in WM, I get an error message that says "Some errors occurred
while processing the requested tasks. Please review the list of errors below
for more details." However, there is no message there - the Error box is
empty. How do I know what the problem is? I use Gmail, and have it set up to
send my messages to my WM, as well as WLM, which works fine. How come I'm
able to send and receive normally in WLM, but not in WM, and what is this
blank error from? (BTW, in the Tasks box it just says "Check for new
messages on 'Gmail'.") Thanx in advance.

What if any antivirus programs do you have? A Norton antivirus program
caused this for me in WM, and had to be uninstalled, not just disabled, to
stop it.

Also, if you are using HTTP protocol for the Gmail connection under WLM,
you will have to set up to use a different protocol under WM, since WM
can't handle the HTTP protocol.

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...y?answer=13273

These instructions cover both the IMAP protocol and the POP protocol.
Choose one, and don't get them mixed up.

Re: Problems sending/receiving when switching from Windows Live Mail back to Windows Mail
You've run across one of the main reasons why many people are
switching from WM to WLM. The latter has fewer bugs.

Yes, I see what you mean. Not worth the trouble. I guess I'll be sticking
with WLM for now. Thanx, all, for the advice anyway.

You're welcome. Sometimes we have to choose between the lesser
of two evils. ;-)
