| | Receiving Windows Mail Messages Just reformatted my computer due to a problem (have Vista Home Premium) and am getting all the software back in. Windows mail seemed OK at first and then I realized I wasn't getting new emails. I did find I could receive them if I exited Windows Mail and then came back in. Clicking Send/Receive above does not help. Any suggestions? Thanks -- Jim H |

As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off, although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects. In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled. If turning off your antivirus email scanning function does not resolve your problem, consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus programs: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons explained here: http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ning/index.htm -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Jim H" <JimH@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:5C2DB6C9-9029-4785-BDF5-047923B519DA@xxxxxx Quote: > Just reformatted my computer due to a problem (have Vista Home Premium) and > am getting all the software back in.
