WLM didn't import all email
As others have posted, I too installed Windows Live Mail before installing Win 7. Windows Mail had everything the same as Outlook Express, folders, contacts, etc. I copied all the folders in Win Mail to a CD before upgrading to Windows Live Mail. Live Mail supposedly imported everything, then I installed Win 7. I have mail, but there are many messages that just give me a "This message cannot be found". So I tried importing from the cd, and many were imported, but a folder I made that has "Hold", and subfolders 2007, 2008, 2009 for some messages I wanted to save still won't appear. Also, the folder 2009 isn't there. My contact list wasn't as I had it set up for certain groups, so I had to manually redo them. When I received email, my rules weren't followed, so email was lumped in one place. I'm very disgusted with Live Mail and would like to try a program similar to Outlook Express that keeps email in the computer, but I don't know what is available, nor do I know if I can disable Live Mail.
