  1. When migrating mail into Outlook client from Windows Mail/Live Mail, do 'originals' stay...


    In an attempt to recover old emails in Windows Live Mail, files that were 'corrupted' during a Windows Update, I've discovered that Outlook can easily open the WLM .eml files, although WLM no longer can. It's as if the headers, or whatever, that make up the WLM list of Inbox messages don't link to the .eml files where the actual messages are stored. Thus I was going to try importing the .eml files into Outlook, where they would become .pst files, hopefully re-creating new message Inbox listings there. But I'd like to know if the files in WLM will be physically moved or deleted, or whether

    Yes, Windows mail (on Vista) is almost identical to Windows Live Mail (which I use here at work on XP), and have multiple accounts set up.

    Windows Live Mail has one of the best out-of-the-box spam detectors I have ever seen in an e-mail client, and of course, it's free.

    The one thing I like about WLM over Windows Mail on Vista, is that WLM does not use popup box verification when you delete the entire junk mailbox (it does, however, on the deleted mailbox). If I hit the delete key for a whole mailbox, I mean it. Honestly, you don't have to ask me if I am sure about what I am doing.
