Windows Mail

[Steve]

Windows mail is sending my email fine, but nothing will come in.

I sent myself a test email from another account and got no bounce back
message. The email never arrived either to windows mail.

Daughter sent me email and it did not arrive either. She never got
bounced mail either.

No errors at all on my end.

Sent a message from Windows mail to my msn account and it arrived just
fine. Hit reply and the email never made it to Windows Mail, not
bounce message, no error.

IE 8 also has the "send page by mail" and "send link by mail" options
grayed out and not usable.

Everything worked 2 days ago. So I did a restore back to then and
still same trouble.

Any clue what I can do to fix this trouble?

You might need to activate POP/IMAP in your email account (gmail, hotmail,
etc) I found a tutorial that walked me through setting up Windows Mail and
activating my gmail account so now i receive/send emails through Windows
Mail. Hope this is helpful. The site is "vista4beginners.com/email" Good
Luck
