Problems with setting up my ISP's mail server in Windows Live Mail and Thunderbird

The laptop is a G60-535DX with Windows 7 64 bit. I've managed to setup my gmail account fine in Live Mail, but when setting up my ISP' mail server, it doesn't work. I get the message that the information was entered correctly, and I see the 'connecting' at the bottom of the page, and then 'error', and clicking on it shows a socket error #10061. In Thunderbird, I get a timeout error message. I've entered all the incoming and outgoing server information correctly, (I've done this over 8-9 times now), the ports are the defaults(110,25), no SSL, no authentication. I've talked with my ISP several times. Just a couple of hours ago was the last time. Their only other possibilities were that Live Mail had problems with setting up more than one account, that Live Mail needed updating, that Windows 7 was a new operating system and there were 'kinks'. I removed the gmail account, set up the ISP's mail by itself; didn't help. I checked for Live Mail updates, but found out that they all come from Windows updates(which are current). The folks on PCQ&A inform me that they have 3 or 4 accounts with Live Mail. I can get my mail, by logging onto my ISP's website, but that' kind of a nuisance. I posted this in Seven Forums and they didn't have any ideas. As I said, I also can't get my mail server to work in Thunderbird, either. I don't know what else to try. (short of activating the recovery partition and starting from scratch). Any ideas would be more that welcome.
Thanks,
Steve

Nevermind, it's fixed. One of the guys on PCQ&A suggested going to my ISP's website to see if they had a support page. They did and it stated that under certain circumstances that for the login ID the whole email address should be entered. For XP and Outlook Express one only uses the first part of the email address (your name); so just for grins I entered the whole address, name and all and everyting worked. Called my ISP and was told that that wasn't the way it's supposed to work. Well----
Thanks anyway,
Steve
Mine works the same way_must enter full email address as login. AT&T?

There is a problem with the security certificate of the proxy server. Error code 18 and 38.

Hi All,
After several hours and a short night of sleep I'm out of ideas and hopefully someone here can help me trying to solve this one. First of all the situation:
Exchange 2013 on a remote location with a CA-certificate.
Outlook 2010 and 2013 on different locations, locally installed and on RDS.
When I open Outlook on my laptop all is fine, no errors, good sync, no problem. But when I open Outlook on our Remote Desktop Servers with Outlook 2013 I'm getting errors like "There is a problem with the security certificate of the proxy server. The
name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site. Outlook is unable to connect to this server. (Error code 18)". Opening Outlook 2010 the message is the same, but the error code now is 38.
After this Outlook opens and is working, there's one more error though. After a while an security warning pops up with the message: "Information you exchange with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. However, there is a problem with the
site's security certificate. * The security certificate was issued by a company you have not chosen to trust. View the certificate to determine whether you want to trust the certifying authority. * The security certificate is valid. * The name on the security
certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site."
Strangest thing is, it is the certificate of my RDS! It isn't my valid en officially bought certificate from my mailserver. What's going on? I'm out of options, what I've tried so far (in random order):
- restarting mailserver and AD;
- restarting switches;
- restarting routers;
- restarting RDS, AD and all other servers;
- bypassed proxyserver for RDS;
- created a new profile;
- checked recently installed updates;
- checked certificate on mailserver;
- checked RDS on a different location, working fine.
Nothing helped, what can I do next? Please advice.
Regards.

Found a thread that solves half my problem (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/70d18244-889a-4d95-ac3f-e234672a82b2/there-is-a-problem-with-the-proxy-servers-security-certificate-error-when-starting-outlook?forum=exchangesvrclients).
The first message can be suppressed by adding this to the Exchange config:
set-outlookprovider -Identity EXCH -CertprincipalName msstd:webmail.domain.tld
set-outlookprovider -Identity EXPR -CertprincipalName msstd:webmail.domain.tld
Giving the command get-outlookprovider, gives me empty information regarding the certprinipalname. Filled
this and after recreating the profile or deleting the ost-file I still have the second alert with the local certificate of my RDS.
Not completely where I want to be, any help regarding the second alert is greatly appreciated!

How I can synchronize my Mail Accounts in Windows Live Mail with iOS?

I want to synchronize my Mail Accounts with password from Windows Live Mail to my iphone on iOS.
How I can do that?

You'll probably get more responses if you post in the Mountain Lion forums.
Best of luck.

How can I get two lines mail list like Windows Live Mail and How can I get to, cc, bcc lines like Windows Live Mail?

I wish to move Thunderbird. But i have two main problem.
* I want two lines mail lis like Live Mail,
* I want to, cc, bcc line like Live Mail. I mean when, I write an e-mail address I will key "," (or another character) then I will enter next email address. Auto address completion must work for each address which I enter the address line.
Can i do those on Thunderbird?
I searched on the internet and there are much people who want this features.
Thanks..

I see the dropdown menus for CC and BCC, but they don't work. I click on them and there is no response except the name I already had in the "TO" field disappears! The attached screenshots shows the name in the "to" field, then the result after choosing "add CC" - the "to" name disappears.

Trouble signing into e-mail with Windows Live Mail?

Organizer says in e-mail setup to recheck your sign on and or password. I've been using same for years and it's correct. I use Windows Live Mail threw my service provider and their SMTP port is 25 and that's the only one they use. On setup I used "OTHER" and wrote in Windows Live Mail in the blank. How do you setup port 465 & 587 on my firewall which is microsoft firewall. I already setup Adobe Photo essentials to be alowed through fire wall? I'm lost and not a programer!!!

Tried both deleting the account and re setting it up again and tried accessing it through my sons PC with the same results.
E mail 1 says

Contacts Sync with Windows Live Mail 2011

I'm using Windows 7 with the Windows Live Mail 2011 desktop application for email and contacts. Is it possible to sync the contacts in my Windows Live Mail 2011 application with my iPhone (iOS v4) using iTunes?
In Windows Vista, I used Windows Mail which stored contacts data in the Contacts folder within my profile (c:\users\username\contacts). These contacts did sync with my iPhone without any problems. Windows 7 doesn't have an email application built-in so, I'm using Windows Live Mail 2011. Windows Live Mail 2011 doesn't store contacts in the Contacts folder within my profile though. Is there anyway to sync my iPhone with my Windows Live Mail 2011 contacts?
Thanks,
Matt

Found this with a quick Google search:
To sync contacts with your computer, choose Sync Contacts on your Windows-based PC, or Sync Contacts with Address Book on your Mac.
You can sync your contacts with:
* Microsoft Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Outlook 2007 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
* Windows Address Book (Windows XP and Windows Vista)
* Address Book (Mac OS X v10.4.11 or later)
* Microsoft Entourage 2004 or Microsoft Entourage 2008
So it looks like the answer is no, you can't sync your contacts with Windows Live Mail 2011.

IS PSE8 compatible with Windows Live Mail

Before installing W7+WLM I was able to share my photos using the "Photo Mail" feature with Outlook Express.
Now in W7, I use Windows Live Mail (since OE seems to be replaced with this email program) but I'm not able to use it to send photo emails.
After selecting the photos in the "photo mail" feature, and right before the photo email is supposed to pop up, I get this error message:
"Elements Organizer could not finish creating your E-mail message.
Alternatively, you can use the Adobe E-mail Service via the Elements Organizer Preferences dialog."
In the preference/sharing tab, I get two options: "Windows Mail" and "Adobe Mail"; I do not see "Windows Live Mail".
What am I doing wrong?

Thank for your reply, V.
You are implying that Windows Live Mail is not supported by PSE8... is this the case?

ICloud won't download whole msg to Windows Live Mail 2011 program if pdf attached

I just posted a message about this but think I posted it in the wrong section, so, am posting again here. Has anyone had this problem? The email arrives in Windows Live Mail 2011 program with the pdf attached but what the sender typed to me in the email is missing.
This email was generated originally by a mac user who sent it to another mac user with a pdf attached. The second mac user sent it to me after typing a couple of words asking me to do something with the pdf. I never saw what he typed in - it was hidden. If I clicked Forwardd, then the draft of the forward showed some of his message to me but it was in weird format (lines broken in half, letters missing). If I clicked Reply, I could not type into the reply.
I checked iCloud mail. The message was there in the iCloud incoming mail folder, intact, everything visible. So the problem occurs when the IMAP server goes to send the mail on to my computer's email program. Junk filters are turned off both on the IMAP server and in my email program so that is not part of the problem.
One thing that occurred to me is that Windows Live Mail 2011 is receiving the email with pdf attached as though the text in the email were a photo or image.
Has anyone encountered this? Can anyone guess what is wrong? Does anyone know how to fix it?
I am using an HP Pavilion Laptop with Windows 7 home premium 64 bit.

Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

Windows Live Mail - Server unexpectedly terminates...

Hi. .Emails downloading fine previously then keep getting this error. Can see 'receiving emails' in bottom right status message but only 1 appears in Inbox.
Then press Send / Receive and the rest arrive in Inbox but more often duplicated.
Help please.

Hi
I have not been able to receive an email on the Windows Live program on my notebook computer since 18th March. I have managed to send emails, just not receive. The error messages are as follows:

I thought it might be the settings, but I have just compared with the family computer, which has a working Windows Live, and the settings appear to be the same.
Any thoughts please? Thank you!
