Hi, am having issues sending photos in windows live mail I get the following.
Delete the photo email, create a new one, and try to send it again.
Server: 'mail.optusnet.com.au'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8CCC0003
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No
Thanks roncerr, I wasnt even aware of the need for skydrive. Not real impressed with this new live mail thing. Anyway thanks for your time.
It's only needed for "photo email" and comes with your Live ID. While it's good to have a Live ID, and you don't want someone else to control it, you don't have to use it. That is, you don't have to "sign in" nor do you have to use "Photo Email" to send photos. Send them as an attached file or as an "in-line inserted image". Keep telling yourself that OE functionality is hidden within WLM.
hi, can you help with why my photo emails won't send in W.L.? it says to delete photo and try again... my skydrive is still ok until 2013.
the tech said the problem lies with W.mail.. but it has gone out again. thanks for any suggestions. since this thread is so old, thought there may be some new fix.

Are you sure you "signed-in" to WLM. (The upper right corner of the main WLM window should show your LiveID, aka Microsoft Account.) You need to be signed-in or WLM won't know whose Skydrive to use.
You have got to be kidding me!! I have been sending pictures all year and never had a problem. Now they are telling me that something I sent was inappropriate. I am a kindergarten teacher for God's sake. I can't imagine. Just to let you know though it appears you have to contact the sky people in order to get it started back up again. Thanks for the information that was posted. I knew there was a sky account when I started using this new windows live mail I was thrust into when I purchased a new computer. I did not however, realize they could shut me down! Very interesting indeed.
