Hi. Under the quick view "all news" I have 9 unread news posts from various
groups and servers that I cannot get rid of. I have tried maintenance and
compacting to no avail. They keep showing up unread. When I try to open or
view any, I get an error:



Message could not be displayed
Windows Live Mail encountered an unexpected problem while displaying this
message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk space and try again.

I have plenty of memory and space.

Thanks

Hi Ron,

We believe that most if not all of the problems with quick views are
caused by having previous Beta's of WLM on your machine. To rebuild
the Quick Views from scratch (and fix any incorrect Quick View data
left in the data store from Beta's), you should delete the following
registry key at HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows Live
Mail\SearchFolderVersion. Note that it'll slow down the next start up
due to the rebuild of the quick view data store.

Thanks,
-Hua

Thanks heaps for that fix Hua, it is *really* good to know. It certainly does repair broken Quick views quickly and without drama (I intentionally broke my Quick views to test it). Still though, the quick views do break again afterward if I delete a storage folder. But at least I can easily repair them again. I am sure you will have that bug fixed for the next build.

Now, off topic whilst I have your attention Hue. Since you post in quoted printable encoding, you must realise that WLM is now automatically wrapping Quoted Printable Plain Text. Is that a bug or by design? I now have to use Base 64 to prevent my Plain Text messages from being automatically text wrapped.
