Vista Tutorial - Windows Mail Send/Receive Error

Hi.

I just run into the same problem which I solved once but can't manage to do
it again.
If I open Windows Mail the program sends and receives mail automatically.
Then if I click on Send/Receive again it comes up with an error but no error
details.
If I click the small arrow to the right of Send/receive and choose Receive
All it works but not if I just hit Send/Receive.
Does anybody got an idea how to get rid of this error.
I had this with Ultimate and now with Home Premium, so it's some kind of a
bug in Windows Mail I guess.

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

This problem may be caused by your antivirus program.
Windows Mail is incompatible with most McAfee and Norton
antivirus programs. If you are using either of those two, it is
best to uninstall it and replace it with a more compatible
antivirus, such as the free version of Avast:

........hi and thanks for the suggestion but I turned of AVG Pro Anti Virus
but still the same thing.
I had the same problem before on my Vista Ultimate notebook running Windows
Live OneCare and got fixed in Tools/Options/Connection but in this case on
Vista Home Premium in can't get it to work without this lttle flaw.
If you got another idea please let me know.......thanks

I don't have any other suggested fixes for Windows Mail, except to upgrade it
to Windows Live Mail:
