Re: Posting to Microsoft Communities using Vista Mail

Its a little bit hit and miss. I think they may be working on it.

If you cannot sign on at all and have no logon box when trying to, then you
have to close WinMail and check running processes and make sure WinMail.exe
is not listed. Some applications use it and leave it open and that prevents
the ability to log on. After terminating the process then reopen WinMail
and you should be able to log on.

The other issue is when you log on and it tells you in a message box that it
cannot find "About:blank". When that happens hit OK and then click on the X
in the upper right hand corner of the log on box to close it. Then you are
logged on.

Other times (more recently) you don't get the error logging on.
