Restrict Send/Receive to Manually Only

I use Mailwasher Pro to screen my messages and wish to prevent Live Mail
from reading and sending automatically. I have unchecked Send and Receive
messages at start-up and also Check for New Messages every ... under tools,
options general, yet send/ receive still occurs automatically. I'm open to
suggestions including registry changes if necessary.

Windows XP SP3, updates current
Live Mail Version 2008(Build 12.0.1606)

Under what conditions? Try using Work Offline?
Are you using its Login to Windows Live feature?
There is some kind of timer associated with it for sure.

Use the troubleshooting log to get some specific clues.
Unfortunately I don't think that tool gives as many details
as we really need to understand why WLMail does what
it does. In any case another diagnostic you could use
to supplement it is ProcMon, especially if your symptom
is easily reproduced.

WLM is in on-line mode and I do not use Windows Live sign-in.

Work Offline is also going to put IE offline.

Re: Restrict Send/Receive to Manually Only

We've seen this apparent auto-sync before with no apparent solution in settings or reg hacks. It's unknown whether the next
version will address the issue either.

Re: Restrict Send/Receive to Manually Only

Can you confirm that the unwanted syncs happen only in non-POP accounts?

Re: Restrict Send/Receive to Manually Only

I've had it happen to a POP3 account ( I don’t have any IMAP or HTTP
accounts).

Once in a while (hasn't happened often - averages maybe once or twice a
month) while working in newsgroups, my POP3 mail will download. In
Tools, Options, General, I do NOT have check for messages enabled.

I'm not sure what exactly triggers it.

Re: Restrict Send/Receive to Manually Only

Do you have "Include this account when receiving mail or
synchronizing" selected on the account properties General tab? If
so, how do you go about synchronizing without that triggering a mail
download? How do you normally download messages - just click on the
button, or do you select the account from the dropdown? As far as I
can see, the send/receive mechanisms are common to mail and news.

Re: Restrict Send/Receive to Manually Only

Hi, Norm.

In Tools | Options | Send, have you checked the box to Send messages
immediately?
