So you think that you are properly installed, but you cant receive messages?

Now you know why I suggested the Outlook in the MS Office beta. While TBird works for various providers when importing from those accounts it lacks as far as WLM there.

MS works with MS for the most part!

I suggested, above, that the poster think about WLM. It could not work better.

I would love to have the outlook but if it is a beta will that not mean it will only work for so long then it will cancel and you will have to buy the program?

That's the drawback for any MS Office products while in beta. But this is also a chance to give the 2010 and Visio 2010 as well a good lookover at the same time. Well at least until you find a more definite solution.

The one real advantage for using WLM over a regular ISP account with several aliases is the lack of need for downloading any emotions unlike OE or WMail in past versions where you end up at a place loaded with adwares when going to download their idea of a free collection for customizing your mail.

For the Outlook in Office 2010 have a look at how easy that is to add any new account in. The different accounts will be seen as links in the left column one above the other keeping them separate but still in one place for easy access.
