After installing SP2 on my Vista Business OS laptop I could no longer send and receive all my mail in Windows Mail.
I had my BT Yahoo mail account set up to deliver all my mail to my POP inbox. This included mail from 2 other servers which could then be accessed through my Mail Inbox. Several of the email addresses are used for a web page that I maintain on an Apache server and cannot be accessed in any other manner. The other server that had mail forwarded to my Inbox can be accessed with HTTP and is not so important, yet still irritating.
Microsoft's answer to problems with the (now unsupported, apparently) Windows Mail that all Vista users have paid for, seems to be exclusively to tell everyone to move to using Windows Live Mail.
So I downloaded it most reluctantly. And it also does not work with these forwarded mail addresses. Just keep getting asked for a password over and over.
I can go to the BT Yahoo server and send mail there out of these external addresses but it is not possible to receive mail.
So is that it, Microsoft? Can I no longer access these accounts at all?
I would change to using Mozilla Thunderbird but it has no facility for importing my huge store of Windows Mail Messages.
Any suggestions anybody, I have spent many hours on this and it is driving me demented. All real help would be most appreciated.
