What do you mean "when I try to send email from any other vista site ..."?

What Vista sites are you talking about?

You might have to add some specifics.
e.g. A vista site that you are trying to send mail; the text of the error message and error number; how you are attempting to 'setup' anything, what 'still can't send' with Live Hotmail means(i.e. web interface).

p.s. sometimes the caps key sticks on...check yours it might be stuck, if so you might wish to turn it off.

It would help if you described in more detail what you have tried so far.
Did you download and install the new Windows Live Mail program,
as I advised you to do?

Please be civilized and unlock your CapsLock key.

To Gary. Sorry for intruding on someone elses thread, but thank you for
clarifying that ther is "Windows Live Hotmail" and "Windows Live Mail Beta",
as in your link. Having suffered through one week of Hotmail Hell, with
countless errors and having to enter name and password 1,000 times, it was
due for expunging right away.
Then I saw your link. Downloaded and 20 min. later was a happy man. I even
get one click access to Hotmail through it. Please tell me it will last more
than a day! Thank You. Wayne

Winston. Thank you also. One Q. Since I downloaded both WLH and WLM beta, are
they both on my system and how would I delete WLH if so? Or does it matter?
 
G

Thanks, Winston. In other words keep it, as hard as it is to access. I
believe a lot of posters are confused by the continuous mention of Hotmail
when WLMb is meant. One click access (from desktop or tray)is so great, why
would anyone want Hotmail? And these threads would be shorter! That's my
opinion. Thanks, Wayne

Enjoy!
WLM is a Godsend for people who use Hotmail a lot.
(I don't, but I like the other features.)

You're welcome.
Lol...Msft and Msn haven't made it easy with all the nomenclature and email clients

Email clients or software capable of retrieving msn.com or hotmail.com email(pop3 or http)accounts since 1995.
1. Exchange
2. Internet Mail and News
3. Windows Messaging which was an update and rename of #1 to avoid confusion with the corporate Exchange Server
4. Outlook Express
5. Msn Explorer
6. Hotmail
7. Outlook
8. Windows Live Mail Beta
- which had a Live and Classic interface and the ability to revert the account back to #6 interface
9. Windows Live Mail Desktop Beta
10. Windows Mail(Vista)
11. Windows Live Hotmail which merged #6 and #8
12. Windows Live Mail beta which was #9 until #11 occurred

Today depending upon the type of account(fee or free) numbers 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, and 12 still function.

Simple...right ...like Elvis impersonator's<g>

Thank you, thank you very much!

Wow. 12 mail versions. What I downloaded was Gary's link to Desktop Beta.
Love it. It's been 18 hours and no glitches yet.
I have Hotmail and my server Email on it with no ads. Then I still have my
icon to Hotmail with the ads. I hate ads!. I suppose it's just a matter of
deleting it from my desktop and igmoring, as it is redundant now what with
the same address..
Wonder if the original poster solved their problem. Thanks, Wayne
PS - I have been clicking "was this post helpful" but it isn't working.

I've never used that option..it may require a live.id logon for it to function.

Sir,
Thak you for your help. It was greatly appreciated.
After reading the other posts I was able to understand what I was doing wrong.

I apologize for being "uncivilized" I was extremely frustrated and used all
caps to show that.

Again sir and the others who posted to my question, I greatly appreciate all
of your help.

In addition to what Windows Mail (WM) does, Windows Live Mail (WLM) has
the capability to access Hotmail accounts.
Also, quite a few WM bugs have already been fixed in the latest WLM version.
Furthermore, Microsoft is actively working on improving WLM, and Microsoft
reps are actively participating in discussions about WLM bugs, features and
proposed improvements in the newsgroup microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop.
