Vista - Re: Windows Mail complaints

It sounds like you're talking about "Ignore", not "Ignore all"...

but you are not using OE.
never in my over 5 years of using OE did I NEVER have to deal with the same word more than once.
without adding it to my custom dictionary.

OE didn't make me add goofy words, that I use one time, to my dictionary.

ignore is for that spell check session not for any other.
to fix it you need to do as was suggested, add the words to the dictionary.
what I have done.
even for words that I want to be capitalized differently/

Thanks MICHAEL. I do also have a delay when I click on "To" or "Cc:", etc.
One more annoying characteristic. But I'm most annoyed by the "Ignore all"
bug.

There is a "delay" for a lot of folks using Windows Mail when
composing and replying. I have seen this delay since RC2,
and not in any prior beta build.
Like you said, the window may pop up right away, but you can't do
anything for awhile. Do you also have a delay when you try
to highlight text in a reply window to cut or copy? I do.
This used to drive me crazy trying to figure out what the problem
was. I've tried numerous things. I have found that after having
WinMail open for about 30 minutes to an hour, the "delay" goes away.

I never thought I would say this, but Windows Mail is far worse than
Outlook Express ever was. I don't care what supposedly was done
to it to make it "better", but it really blows. I am amazed WinMail was
put into Vista in this condition. I really feel like I am using a beta
product.
Pathetic is the only word I can muster to describe Windows Mail.

Luckily, I use Outlook for email and only use WinMail for newsgroups.


Take care,

Michael
