    e-mails not getting to windows mail

    A few days ago could not send e-mails and fixed that, now mail is showing up
    in my providers webmail, but does not come through to windows mail. Any
    solutions out there. Went through all settings with provider and all were
    set properly.

    Check Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, General and make sure that
    include this account is checked.

    Is this a POP3 account? If so, also check your message rules (Tools,
    Message Rules, Mail) to see if any have an action of Do not download or
    Delete from server.

    If that doesn't help, you may want to record a log to show more details
    of the sending and receiving.

    To enable logging select Tools, Options, Advanced, Maintenance,
    Troubleshooting. Check the box to enable and click APPLY. Run the
    Send/Receive, then click the box to uncheck and APPLY.

    POP3 enables both POP3 and SMTP logging.

    The logging information will be appended to WindowsLiveMail.log in the
    same location as the WLM Store Folder (click the STORE FOLDER button
    above Troubleshooting to see its location).

    The WindowsLiveMail.log grows indefinitely. You may want to rename (or
    delete) the current log file before starting logging in order to get a
    more manageable file size. WLM will automatically create a new log file
    when needed if one doesn't exist.

    And in case by Windows Mail you mean the Vista Windows Mail and not the
    Windows Live Mail that this newsgroup is for, then see

    news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...ows.vista.mail

    You can also get to the newsgroup via this web site:
    http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.mspx
    There select Windows Vista, then Windows Mail.

    Not nowadays, I think. before v.12, yes (when mine got to 50MB and
    broke Notepad, I bugged it...) but now it's pegged at max 4 or 5MB.
    I haven't checked in v.14, though...
