Vista - Blank error on send/receive

08-30-2007

Hello All,

First I would like to say this, if you PERSONALLY haven't experienced the
problem and found a fix or APPLIED a FIX that works, don't try to 'help' as
you just waste a lot of people's time and risk really screwing their
computers up more than they already are OR WORSE... Also, WE ALL SPENT A
LOT OF MONEY FOR A PRODUCT THAT SHOULD WORK AND NOT HAVE IT'S EXPORT\IMPORT
UTILITIES BREAK IT... ALSO, I HAVE TRIED WLM AND FIND IT LACKING AND IT DOES
NOT HAVE THE FEATURES THAT WM HAS, SO, SHUTUP ABOUT IT, I WANT THE PRODUCT I
PAID MONEY FOR TO WORK <<< get's off soap-box

Now for A (as in ONE) fix that worked PERFECTLY for ME (which does mean it
may NOTwork for you):

***I applied this fix even though I am on Windows Vista Ultimate (32-bit)***

go to this URL: http:

//www.vistax64.com/tutorials/62560-windows-mail-problems.html

Follow the instructions for RESETTING WINDOWS MAIL exactly as written.

Please follow Usenet conventions and don't type half your post
in capital letters. If you really are an IT Professional, you should
know that.

Secondly, I get it that WLM is not your cup of tea.
That doesn't mean it can't be a good fit for someone else.
In fact, the majority of regular responders here have switched
from WM to WLM. Bottom line, I'm not going to shut up about
it, in spite of your demands.

The average user is usually not confident enough of their
computer skills to carry out the complex Resetting Windows Mail
instructions, without making any mistakes. For them, a
trouble-free upgrade to WLM is a godsend.

It's funny how some people think they paid a lot of money for a free
utility....

I think of Windows Mail (and OE) as the toy in a box of Cracker Jack. If it
works, fine.
If it doesn't work, find something else.

It would be funny were it not for the fact that some people,
such as IT Prof, are clinging to reality by their very finger tips
and only need the slightest nudge.

Mass murderers have motivated by less.

Dave n/a posts	Re: Blank error on send/receive It's funny how some people think they paid a lot of money for a free utility.... I think of Windows Mail (and OE) as the toy in a box of Cracker Jack. If it works, fine. If it doesn't work, find something else.

If it doesn't work, find something else. It would be funny were it not for the fact that some people, such as IT Prof, are clinging to reality by their very finger tips and only need the slightest nudge. Mass murderers have motivated by less.
