At least half the Windows Mail problems reported in this newsgroup are
caused by antivirus programs, so you probably need to at least consider
it.
Did you do a default install of avast!? If so, it often helps to uninstall
it,
then do a custom install where you tell it to leave out the parts that scan
email.
The uninstall programs for Norton and McAfee often fail to remove the
parts of these programs that cause problems in Windows Mail, so you
are likely to need to run their cleanup programs if you haven't done this
already:
After this, you may also need to remove your email account under Windows
Mail, then restart Windows Mail and add the account again.
If this doesn't solve your problems, we're likely to need to see the entire
error
messages, not just a quick summary of them, to know just what other help you
need. Right click on them and copy the entire error messages to your next
message.

POP3 email clients have been popular since the 1990s.
It is hardly a computer term that "nobody knows".
Do you need assistance in tying your shoe laces as well?

I understand your viewpoint, Xenomorph, since I am an
old-time computer user myself. However, let's be kind to
folks who are just now learning to operate computers.

Mt ISP is nbnet.nb.ca and I call them all the time. I used Outlook Express
way before XP I had Windows 95-98-98Se and now Vista. This Vista changed the
Outlook Express for Windows Mail, and I sure have trouble with this one, I
couldn't believe this program to give me problems with my connections for
sending email. I empty my Internet Explorer Temp. Files and cookies etc.
still, but today, keep my fingers cross, it is working... for how long I am
not sure. Sincerely Denise I do have the same email since years ago.
kite RemoveThis @nbnet.nb.ca also hotmail to.

Good to hear you are currently not having problems with Windows Mail.
When that changes, you know where to find us.

It's insulting to have something apparently criticized by someone who knows
nothing about it.
