Windows 10: Random messages\problems when receiving emails WLM 2012

Since this weekend i have been encountering random errors with Windows Live Mail 2012 and i feel it is taking more time to get the messages. This is an example of the errors:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail (i omitted e mail for security) account. Header download for the 'RECIBOS MISC.' folder did not complete. Could not update cached message flags with IMAP server.Server Response: The server did not respond to this IMAP command before the connection was terminated.Server: 'imap-mail.outlook.com'Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0FProtocol: IMAPPort: 993Secure(SSL): Yes


​Some other time the error shows up, but with the Inbox. The problems only occur for e-mail accounts related to Hotmail\Outlook.

Windows 10/WLM 2012 problem

I have upgraded to Windows 10 and now WLM 2012 will receive emails but will not let me reply to them or allow me to create new emails.

 

WLM 2012 stopped working under windows 10 on Dec 11 after I installed the requested update d-Mail.msp

On the other Forum it was mentioned that the original email we received from MIcrosoft did not specifically say that the WLM2012 update applied to WLM 2012 running
under Windows 10. Indeed, the wording is rather misleading. Read it again.

Obviously,Microsoft had determined I was using WLM 2012 or they would not have sent me the email in the first place. I underscore that part of the sentence in their email which led me to assume they knew that I was using WLM 2012:

In a few weeks, we will be making some changes to our email services that might impact your @outlook.com, @hotmail, @live, or @msn email account. Those changes will prevent your email from being delivered to the Windows Live Mail 2012 application
you use.

Given that I am running a licence copy of Windows 10, you would think that they would know that too and then not bothered to send the email to me if the update did not apply in my case.

Anyway, it would be enlightening to hear from any Windows 8 and 8.1 users who use WLM 2012 if the update did work for them and WLM 2012 continued afterward to run fine.

 

It's time to start using Windows Mail app or another email client, support for Windows Live Essentials 2012 (including Windows Live Mail) has ended in January. Read more here: Windows Essentials 2012 will reach end of support on January 10th 2017 - - Windows 10 Forums

This means that Windows Live Mail will become more and more vulnerable and possible bugs will not be fixed anymore.

I stopped using the mail app that comes with Windows 10 because it won't let mark or highlight every email message for deleting. Is that available now? And is it possible to export the accounts to Windows Mail app?

 

Win 10 Mail App has had Mail Selection for some time.
It generally sets up the Mail Accounts itself. No actual need to import account details from something like WLM 2012 they would be wrong anyway. WLM 2012 is no longer supported as already mentioned.

Why not just use/try it. It does not stop you trying others.
