With what if any error messages? Show the full error messages if
you get any.

You may have to delete your email account under Windows Mail, restart
Windows Mail again, and create the account again to get rid of all the
problems McAfee left behind.

Also, click on Tools, then Accounts, then your email account, then
Properties. If there's no check mark in the box before Include this
account when receiving mail or synchronizing, click on this box and
then Apply. Click on OK and then Close.

Click on Tools, then Options, then Send. If there's no check mark in
the box before Send messages immediately, click on this box and then
Apply. Click on OK.

Can you give me a quick "How To" on that? I am not sure how to delete my
account and will I lose any of my emails or addressbook?
Thanks so far,

In Windows Mail, deleting an account does not delete any messages,
nor does it affect anything else like the addressbook (contacts).
Go to Tools, Accounts, select (highlight) the account, click Remove.

I removed my windows mail accout and closed windows mail. I opened windows
mail back up and went in and set my account up again. I have exactly the same
problem. What else could it be???

Did you verify the other two options that Robert asked you to check?

If those don't pan out, then one solution would be to upgrade your
Windows Mail to Windows Live Mail:
