Vista - Running in background

Version 2009 (14.0.8064.0206)

WLM continues to run even after the program is closed. I had to "End
Process" in Task Manager in order to open WLM again. This happens
particularly after receiving messages. What went wrong? Please help. Thanks.

WLM sill not shut down entirely if a. It's currently in the process of
downloading messages or b. it's currently processing new messages through
any rules that you have setup.
Once it has downloaded messages and processed the rules then it should shut
down without any problems.

It's really hard to say x went wrong or y went wrong without a lot more
information (event logs, system specs etc.).

Hi Colin,

WLM version: Version 2009 (14.0.8064.0206)
Platform: Vista Ultimate x86 SP1

I had no problems with older version of WLM (2008). I did a test.

After receiving a new message:

After reading it: http://onnuke.evonet.ro/images/094222_3837_2.gif
As you can see WLM is not downloading or processing anything.

I close WLM and what do you know, it's still running:

After 20 minutes, no matter how many times I click to open WLM, it just
won't launch: http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/8ab8dea4a8.gif
If I don't receive new messages, WLM will close entirely without any
problem. Weird???

On average, I read messages 5-6 times a day. It's really annoying to "End
Process" each time I want to re-launch WLM.

Please help.

Thanks.

I have exactly this same problem. It's so annoying that I am considering not
using live mail any more

Please tell us what happens if you set Work Offline
before closing WLMail. FWIW every time I have remembered
to do that WLMail has crashed. ; )

Otherwise my workaround is to set the compaction interval
to 1 and wait for the prompt. If I have been doing anything
clicking Yes results in a message about a file being in use
while clicking No consistently allows WLMail to close.
Either way it does not hang for me and closes relatively quickly.
