Unable to open & read emails

Out of the blue my wlm has stopped working correctly. I can see all my emails in my Comcast & Hotmail accounts (the subject line) but when I try to open them I get an error message saying: 'There is an error opening this message & that's' it!
I also noticed that the following options are greyed out (not available) Reply Reply All Forward.
I'm not sure what's going on but it's been like this for 2 days & for a brief moment I was actually able to open & read an email today.
Can anyone help please? I don't know what infomation about my PC to post but I'm sure whoever answers this will let me know.

Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit
Windows Live Mail version 2009 Build: (14.0.8064.0206)

Thanx in advance for any help

Re: Unable to open & read emails

Have you checked to see that your settings for that account are still the same? Right click on each of the accounts in the left-hand pane and check to make sure thing are set up properly under the “properties” option.

If things looks like they’re on the up-and-up, you might try removing the account and re-adding the account.

Let me know if either of these helps out.

Thank you for your suggestions. Everything seems to be in order & I've already removed & reinstated my accounts.

@scr621 – OK, the most important thing is that you’re getting what you need!

Re: Unable to open & read emails

Thank you for your response but not really, all I saw was subject lines & could nothing with my email account.
BUT I'm pleased to report that I fixed the issue. I can't say how as I don't know exactly what I did, I just tinkered around, but I have a feeling that uninstalling Windows Live Essentials helped.
