Default Messages That Just Stick In The Outbox

O.K.

Good...

We've now established that the...

"Send this message later, when I trigger it to be sent, rather than
immediately"...

Function...

So useful in Outlook Express...

Has been botched, excised and eliminated in Windows Live Mail -- allegedly
out of some loony belief that the send functions in WLM needed to be
"Regularized".

There they go again...

So they've introduced a New Bug in WLM.

My WLM works as OE does and holds the message in the Out box
until I send It. You must have an old beta version.

Interesting.

No...

I'm using the newest version of WLM, 14.0.8050.1202...

Which admittedly miraculously went from bug-plagued beta to supposedly
finished RTW version overnight.

Which version of WLM are you using and when did you switch from OE?

N. B. I'm sending this from Outlook Express, because it's more reliable.

My version is: Version 2008 [Build 12.0.1606]

Not sure but mine appears to be older version than yours but
Microsoft Update hasn't offered any newer version to me.

Actually I have not switched from OE as I use either one, with
OE as the default program for eml and nws messages. WLM took my
defaults away even when I told it not to, but I snatched them
back. Seems to work for me having both available. I use WLM
mostly for hotmail although not exclusively so.

Hi, Doug.

Windows Live updates aren't offered through Windows Update - yet.

To get the latest version of Windows Live Mail - and all the rest of the
Live suite - go to:
http://download.live.com/

Hi, Doug.

That alone should tell us something important and significant.

....Not offered at Windows Update yet...

Probably because the folks at Windows Update are conservative, competent,
cautious and sane -- realizing that WLM 14 is unstable and massively
buggy -- so they don't want to spread the poison to the masses and are
waiting for an updated version themselves.

To get the latest version of Windows Live Mail - and all the rest of the
Live suite - go to:
http://download.live.com/


I think he's wiser to stick with WLM 12 for the time being -- and use OE6
too, as he says he does.

Yes, that version, WLM 12 is, overall, probably the better one. I think you

having both available. I use WLM mostly for hotmail although not

That's basically what I'm doing as well. I've made OE6 my default program
for eml and nws messages and just use WLM 14 for experiments.

It's interesting that you don't have this "messages sticking in the outbox"
problem in WLM 12. As far as I can recall. I don't believe I did either.
