    Sent items

    Only mail that is sent to people that are in my contact list will show up in
    the sent items. If they are not in my contact list anything i try to send
    does not go through. Any ideas of how to correct this?

    Re: Sent items

    Do you mean that they never get the messages or that you never see the
    messages in the Sent Items folder?

    Are you getting any error messages?

    Do you have more than one mail account at Tools (ALT+T), Accounts?

    Select the folder then View (ALT+V), Show or Hide and make sure that
    Show all Messages is selected. Also at View, if there is a check mark
    in front of View by Conversation click to uncheck. Then in the folder
    click on the DATE column heading to sort by date. See if you can then
    find your missing messages.

    Also note that each mail account has its own Sent Items folder and that
    there is also one under Storage Folders used by newsgroups. Make sure
    that you are looking at the correct folder.

    Mike,

    Thanks for the response. They are not getting the mail. I only have 1 mail
    account.
    I tried sending something to myself and it didn't go through. I then put my
    email address in the contacts and sent myself something. It went through and
    appeared in the sent items.

    Re: Sent items

    Windows Live and Windows Live Mail are not the same thing.
    Windows Live is a group name for a whole suite of apps and services.
    See http://windowslive.com/get

    Did you mean Windows Live Hotmail ?

    It sounds like something is interfering with your Windows Live Mail.
    Which antivirus are you running? Some of them cause mail problems over time.
