Unexpected Error Opening Email Message(s)

When attempting to open or delete certain messages in Windows Mail, I receive
a message stating that "an unexpected error has been encountered." The error
message text points to a problem with memory or the hard disk being full.
However, I am running Windows Mail on a brand new computer with plenty of
memory and disk space. Lastly, I have succesfully opened other emails that
were received before and after the emails that have this problem. Does
anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance...
 
The error message saying "low memory" is bogus, just ignore it.
It is the result of database corruption in Windows Mail.
The fixes that are available for this problem are somewhat complex,
and not without undesirable side effects. If you are not willing to
ignore the undeletable emails, you can upgrade to Windows Live Mail:

Windows Live Mail was developed by the same Microsoft team that
developed Windows Mail, but the former has benefitted from ongoing
development and fixes being incorporated recently.

Your reply to go into
http://get.live.com/betas/maildesktop_betas
did not work, because internet explorer opened with a bunch of betas info
boxes or live info boxes. What should I do now? I am still getting that
error message with my Windows Mail. Even when I want to type a new email to
send out, I am getting that error box. Help! !!!!!!!
