| Guest | Can't send or receive mail / log on Hi,hopefully someone can help me here.I've been using windows mail for months with no problems but now I can't send or receive emails.I haven't changed anything in my settings and accounts but every time I try to send /receive mail the user id/ Password window pops up. And finally have to give up as it doesn't logged on. Can anyone suggest about how to solve this problem? Is it some way possible to un install & reinstall the windows mail so that the problem can be solved.know what I should do to restore normal service? Many thanks. |

| Guest | Re: Can't send or receive mail / log on Can you log in to that account via the web? If so, which antivirus are you using? Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee and Norton security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled, not just disabled. After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 If after uninstalling your antivirus, the problem with Windows Mail persists, delete that corrupted mail account, restart Windows Mail, then recreate that account. -- Gary VanderMolen [MS-MVP WLM] "BBSR GUY" <BBSR GUY@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:E6A17699-3C61-411C-B10E-CDD4F1F9AD73@xxxxxx Quote: > Hi,hopefully someone can help me here.I've been using windows mail for > months with no problems but now I can't send or receive emails.I > haven't changed anything in my settings and accounts but every time I try to > send /receive mail the user id/ Password window pops up.
