However, Outlook Express still wants to compact messages each time I launch
the Live Mail. Of course, it is much better than earlier, when it wanted to do this every few minutes. "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote: YW & thanks for your feedback. Simus wrote: Thanks.

Is WLMail your default Mail Client now? Do you still use OE?
You'll find support for Windows Live Mail (WLMail) in this public newsgroup: microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop Via the web-interface: http://www.microsoft.com/communities...mail .desktop Via your newsreader: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...e.mail.desktop Simus wrote: However, Outlook Express still wants to compact messages each time I launch the Live Mail.

[Please quote this entire post when you reply. Thank you.]
Outlook (OL) and Outlook Express (OE) are not the same application. I asked if you still used OE? If you don't see if removing access to OE makes any difference: Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Add/Remove Windows Components | OE (uncheck). Make sure that WLMail is set as your default Mail Client in Set Program Access and Defaults as well as in IE Tools | Internet Options | Programs. Simus wrote: Yes it is.

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Add/Remove Windows Components | OE
(uncheck). Well. Outlook Express never appears in add-remove. Trying to uninstall it was the first thing I attempted when the proble occured. |

Reference: http://groups.google.com/group/micro...57776713086a00 (11Sept-09 &ff) Were you looking in Add/Remove Programs or Add/Remove Windows Components? QED: In your reply on 12 Sept-09, you told us that clearing the checkbox for OE in CONTROL PANEL | INDEXING OPTIONS | MODIFY corrected the problem. Is that checkbox rechecked now? QED: Does the behavior persist if you uninstall Windows Desktop Search via Add/Remove Programs? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 www.banthecheck.com |
