Hi Gbp007,

This is a security feature in Windows Live Mail Beta to help prevent automatically opening any attachments by accident from potentially unsafe senders in the Junk e-mail folder. The only way around this is to move trusted emails to the Inbox and/or add them to the Safe Senders List (Junk e-mail). You can do all this by right clicking on the message. Otherwise you will need to click on it to open it. Once you get the junk filter settings adjusted to meet your needs it is not so bad.

Yes but when it would display the email on the right panel it doesnt mean the email was opened..Before it would display without even having to open the email which i taught was very convenient..

Gbp007,

I guess the programmers of Windows Live Mail Beta thought that since the message was junk no one would want to have a preview window for it. It would be nice to have a option to turn it on or off. You might send a feedback message to them requesting this feature. If they get enough requests, they may add it to the program, hopefully.

That option would be nice indeed..I noticed a bug on this beta and its when you send a email and then you go to the sent folder it will say unknown instead of the message you just sent..It usually dissapears after a little while and then the message that you sent will display..Have you had that problem ?

Gbp007,

No, I have not seen that problem.
You might download the new version, Windows Live Mail 12.0.1606, and see if it works better for you. Windows Live Mail is finally out of Beta now.
