BT INTERNET EMAIL / WINDOWS LIVE MAIL ISSUE

Good Evening BTCare Community, thanks for taking the time to read this.
I am posting here in the hope that someone out there has come across this problem before when using a BT Internet Email account with Windows Live Mail.
My friend has a BT Internet email account - I've set up Windows Live Mail for him, on a Windows 7 laptop. This was a pretty straightforward process, however my friend is constanly seeing the following error when attempting to send/receive mails through WLM
UNABLE TO SEND OR RECEIVE MESSAGES FOR THE BT INTERNET ACCOUNT
I have tried for several weeks to get to the bottom of this, but sadly with no avail. I have spoken to BT Tech Support twice - the first time an analyst connected to the laptop & checked this - he suddenly suggested I re-install WLM (Which I think was his was of getting me off the phone, as it was approaching 2200 UK time, which I think is when the Help Desk closes!) - so I gave this a try - a complete re-installation of WLM was done - but I am afraid that this hasn't resolved things, the error is still being generated.
I have contacted BT again - spoke to another analyst, who after discussions advised me that there is a known issue between WLM and BT Internet accounts - and that the above error is being displayed due to the size of some email messages that are waiting to be delivered to my friends account. The analyst then suggested that I might want to try another email client - he suggested Mozilla Thunderbird. I've had no experience of Thunderbird - so I've tried downloading this on my own system to see what it's all about - straight away my AV reported a Trojan - MAPIATTACH.TMP - so I'm not going to play about any more with Thunderbird, if I can help it!
Of course, my friend is able to access his email at the BT Internet web page - but we would like his email to be up & running without any problems on an email client - surely there must be some way around the error above, to get my friends email up & running without this error constantly being generated?
I would be extremely grateful for any assistance with this problem - if you have any experience of this error I would love to hear about it - especially if you got it resolved!
Thanks for taking the time to read this - thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer.
Kindest Regards
Alex

  • Windows Live Mail could not be started .... Your Calendar contains corrupt data .... ox8000fff

    I downloaded the Windows Live Essentials for Windows 7 running under Parallels 5.0.9310.  When I try to bring up Windows Live Mail I receive the error:
    Windows Live Mail could not be started.  Closing Windows Live Mail.  Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing Windows Live Mail to close.  (ox8000fff).
    I have:
    1.  Done a repair via control panel
    2.  Deinstalled just mail from the control panel, removed the registry entries for Windows Live Mail in hkey_current_user and hkey_local_machine.
    3.  Reinstalled just mail.
    Nothing seems to work.  I am still getting the error.

    Hi Caprichoso,
    Since it is to be more of Windows Live Mail issue, I kindly recommend you to contact Windows Live Mail Technical Support Team for a specific solution. Here I would like to share the following method based on my research:
    You can click Start, click Control Panel and click Clock, Language, and Region, click Date and Time, click Change time zone and uncheck the box in front of “Automatically adjust clock for Daylight Saving Time”, click OK twice.

  • Want automatic deletion of Verizon Yahoo Internet emails when they're moved to Window Live Mail

    In Windows Live Mail, click on Menu, Options, then Email accounts on the Toolbar. Highlight your @verizon.net  account and click Properties. Click the Advanced tab, then un-check the Leave a copy of messages on server checkbox.
    This should remove mail from the server as it is downloaded.

  • Windows Live Mail 2012 - Outgoing Email Times Out due to Lost Server Connection

    Using Windows Live Mail 2012 on WIN7 64-bit.
    Been receiving emails seemingly without issues, but...
    Haven't been able to POST any outgoing emails now since September 16th for any of my main/sub accounts.
    Indicator is a Norton Internet Security popup stating:
    "Email Error. Your email message was unable to be sent because the connection to your email server was interrupted. Please open your email client and resend the message from the Sent Messages folder." Then it lists the from/to/subj.
    I recompose and try to resend; same results.
    I've rolled WIN7 back to September 6th, but results are the same.
    I thought perhaps NIS was blocking the SMTP port, but same results when I turn off NIS and Antivirus. I don't see anything of significance in NIS's logs.
    Of course, Verizon's mini-app that sniffs out and corrects email problems does not know or care about Live Mail. Just Outlook and OE.
    Ideas? Things to try? Thanks.

    I noticed my email account server settings don't match what is defined on the FiOS email setup page on verizon.com.
    The server setting I have for my POP3 is "incoming.verizon.net" (not pop.verizon.net) and my SMTP server setting is "outgoing.verizon.net" (not smtp.verizon.net).
    Why don't these match? 
    Also, my port settings don't seem to match what's posted online.
    My outbound port is 25 (not 465) and my inbound port is 110 (not 995).
    Doesn't seem right to me, and I'm wondering what changed in the past week?
    The changes to pop/smtp from incoming/outgoing have been in the works for a while. Maybe Verizon finally go around to disabling the old servers?
    Either way, you should update to the latest settings.
    For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up fictional account "[email protected]" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.
    The settings for using Verizon's servers would be:
    Incoming Server: pop.verizon.net
    Server Requires Authentication: Yes
    Username: fakeacct
    Password: fakepassword
    Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): Yes
    Port: 995
    Outgoing Server: smtp.verizon.net
    Server Requires Authentication: Yes (You can set it to use the same settings as incoming, or manually enter the username and password.)
    Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): Yes
    Port: 465
    If you are given the option anywhere for Secure Password Authentication (SPA), set it to No or Normal

  • Weird Issue With Windows Live Mail

    I have a friend using Windows Live Mail and he's been having some weird issues with it. When he goes to forward an email, it will occasionally open the email up twice, which isn't a huge deal it's just more annoying than anything. I thought maybe there was
    some malware or other junk that could be causing it so I ran MBAM and got everything cleaned up but it's still happening. Any other thoughts on what could cause this?

  • Windows live mail 2102 and Verizon yahoo email

    Hello
    I have been using Windows live mail and Verizon yahoo together for over a year
    I use Windows mail since I do like the Verizon webmail feel and format
    These two program have worked fine for me until yesterday
    Today we try to access yahoo mail using  Windows  live I get a series of errors .
    These errors include
    1) timeout
    2) wrong password
      Last night at the recommendation of VZ tech support I deleted my Live account and created a new one for the same yahoo mail address.   This worked last night as all me server email were downloaded for Windows live.
    However this morning when I access Windows love I get the same errors ay yesterday and no new emails since last night
    I have deleted my anti virus program to see if this solved the problem , however this had no impact
    Per VZ tech support I am using the correct port setting, I have tried alternative port setting  with no luck
    I would appreciate any help in fixing this issue
    Thanks

    I have had the same experience.  The answer is to disconnect your verizon email from yahoo email and then to setup your email settings as described in a recent announcement from Verizon that was sent to users that do NOT use the Verizon Yahoo servers.
    Anthony_VZ provides instructions in the Verizon Community Forum - Verizon.net topic.   I was so disgusted by the time I wasted trying to get support to answer the simple question of what settings I should be using that I was ready to dump Verizon completely.  I was eventually sent to Verizon Premium Support that would answer the question for $14.99 per month with a commitment of 10 months.  I have no idea if the Verizon Yahoo ports are even compatible with Windows Live Mail any more or not (nomal support is not "trained in Windows Live Mail").  How they can make something as straightforward as providing email client settings for a common client so difficult is beyond me.
    As you can tell, I am very angry about the time I wasted on this.  Disconnect your Verizon email account from Yahoo and life will be better.  Good Luck.

  • Intranet email with apple mail and windows live mail on LAN

    i have a home wifi network and have two computers using it. one is my macbook and other is my toshiba vista laptop. now my bro and i often exchange emails. he uses windows live mail and i use apple mail. since we are on a slow internet connection with limited data usage per month i was wondering if we could email each other directly over our wifi LAN network without having to use our ISP. i know that we wont be able to use our gmail, yahoo or hotmail or other such internet based IDs but maybe we can make a LAN based ID and exchange emails.
    any suggestions?

    There's no practical, simple way to do that as far as I know. Apple Mail, like virtually every other mail program is only able to communicate with a mail server, not with another such program.
    You would either need to set up a mail server on your LAN (not a trivial task) or you'd have to find a "peer-to-peer" email program and I'm not aware of any such application. Furthermore, in your situation, it would have to be cross-platform (Windows and Mac).
    In more technical terms, the email programs we all use are "Mail User Agents" (MUA). An MUA has to communicate with a "Mail Transfer Agent" (MTA), i.e. the email server. An MUA has NO way to communicate directly with another MUA.

  • Windows Live Mail not connceting with BT email

    Hi
    After 11 weeks trying to get help from BT I managed to get my BT email working, sort of. The problem I'm left with is that Windows Live Mail will not connect to it, an error message of user or password not recognised appears. I've read various messages on the internet but still have had no success. My Windows Live settings are as follows:
    Servers
    My incoming mail server: POP3
    Incoming mail: mail.btinternet.com
    Outgoing mail: mail.btinternet.com
    Email username: [email protected]  (have tried this with the part before the @ also)
    Password: xxxxx (Password working on BT email)
    Log on using clear text authentication
    Advanced
    Server port numbers:
    Outgoing mail: 465 with SSL ticked
    Incoming mail: 995 with SSL ticked
    Any idea what is wrong? Should I go back to BT about this when incoming and outgoing mail is working using BT email? Thanks for any help
    Goggs

    I use the following settings on Windows Live Mail with BTMail on Windows 7

  • Cant create email account but can with windows live mail

    I have an email account that thunderbird just wont create I have contacted my isp and have all the settings correct but everytime i get a message saying. Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account. but on my other email account with charter thunderbird set it up just fine. but when i used the settings to set up the email account in windows live mail it worked. My isp told me its a problem with thrunderbird. can someone help me please.

    Not a problem with Thunderbird, a problem with your anti virus blocking Thunderbird from accessing the internet.
    the configuration for charter is here https://autoconfig.thunderbird.net/v1.1/charter.net
    If Thunderbird can not find it, it is because it can not connect.
    Check the firewall component of the anri virus and make sure Thunderbird has full access to the internet.

  • Email deleted in Mail application reappears in Windows Live Mail account.

    I use a @hotmail.com account and check my emails on the Mail application in my iPod touch.
    I scan and delete those mails on the move.
    However, to my dismay, the same mails are not deleted from the inbox when I access my @hotmail.com account via Windows Live Mail.
    HELP! Why is there a problem with the sync! I do not have the luxury of spending so much time checking and deleting my emails!

    Sorry, no answer here; but the same problem.
    Only we're on a Mac with a Comcast internet mail provider.
    If we use the 'Mail' software on the Mac, we have it set up to pull those emails (or delete them within a week) from the Comcast site.
    However, using the 'Mail' software on the iPod Touch and retrieving and/or deleting them on the iPod doesn't delete messages from Comcast's website, no matter how long.
    Same question - is there a way to setup the iPod to pull emails out of the provider's site? Who has time to delete emails twice through 2 different sources?
    Thanks in advance

  • Windows live mail keeps uploading deleted emails. using the HP Pavilion Slimline s5623w

    Emails that have been deleted months ago are continuously reloading to my inbox. I have the Norton anti virus running on my desktop and it is indicating that everything is fine. Not quite sure what to do. I haven't installed any new software to my computer.

    Hello queenbre2000,
    To clarify you are using the Windows mail application and not necessarily using Live mail from Microsoft?
    What email accounts are you using within Live Mail? Since the application supports many different email providers knowing your exact provider and how you have it configured is going to help with providing proper steps.
    So questions for you
    1. Clarify that you are using Windows Live Mail as in the application?
    1a. If yes, what email provider are you using within the application?
    1b. If no, what application are you using to get your Live Mail?
    2. Are you configured for POP or IMAP access?
    3. Are you running the latest version of the application that you are using?
    4. Do you have the latest Microsoft Windows Updates?
    5. Don't delete, instead manually move an item from the inbox to the trash by dragging and dropping, does it reappear in the inbox?
    6. If you view your email online through the website is the email showing in the inbox?
    Please post back clarifications to the questions.

  • Can I use iCloud to copy all the emails from the iPhone to Windows Live Mail on my PC?

    My Windows 8 OS got trashed and I had to "refresh" it which involved losing all my Windows Live Mail emails (i.e. *.eml files in %AppData%). I have a backup from 18 months ago and most of my recent emails are on my phone.

  • Can't send or receive emails using Windows Live Mail. Webmail login says "account disabled."

    Since yesterday we have not been able to access our Verizon email through Windows Live Mail or loging on to the webmail service.  Nothing happens and we get a "accounts disabled" message.  I checked all of the POP settings and it won't connect.  When we try to log in to the verizon webmail service, it says our accounts have been disabled.  Please tell us what is going on. I've chatted with a representative and am speaking to one on the phone and they can't tell me why it's disabled or how they can enable it again. 

    Ok, now they're telling us that one of our email accounts is associated with someone in Texas.  But we're from California and have always lived here.
