Windows Mail Annoyance

[Port Admiral Haynes]

Ok I know this is trivial but it is annoying me!

When I click Send and Receive the progress box pops up showing all the
details of the mailboxes being checked. If I click Hide Details it does for
that session but if I close and restart Windows Mail is once again shows the
full details.

Any ideas?

Hello,

Make sure Details are showing and do what Cal Bear 66 said.

Thanks, but, like Port Admiral Haynes said previously: "Selected or
deselected it is the same" ... The same for me. Maybe there is a registry key
that toggles displaying / hiding details on the send / receive windows ? But
I didn't find it out ...

Yes, there's a Registry key and doing what we said should change it. It
might be a security program blocking the Registry change it needs to make.
A few, but not all, of the programs now doing this are:
Ad-aware's Ad-Watch
IBM Access Connections
McAfee VirusScan and/or Antispyware
Norton AV
Spyware Blaster
Spybot> Tools> IE Tweaks
Spybot- Teatimer
Spysweeper
Spyware Doctor
Windows Defender
Zone Alarm (free) 6.5 Reported to be fixed in later versions.

In the case of Zone Alarm 6.5 or Norton 2007 it actually has to be
uninstalled. Make sure the Windows Firewall is turned on until you
reinstall Zone Alarm.

Boot into Safe Mode with Networking and try the change.

Many Thanks Franck

By the way, do you know the registry key that is involved ?

No, I don't, and I just checked everywhere I thought it might be. Sorry.
