Solved Missing Items in Windows Live Mail Version 2011

[willum08]

Hi,
I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit and I've recently upgraded my copy of Windows Live Mail to WLM 2011. However, compared with the previous version of WLM, there are two functions which I am unable to find in the new version.

1. In the previous version, I could choose whether or not WLM checked for new emails just at start-up, or at pre-set intervals. Is this facility still available and if so, where can I find it?

2. If I accidentally delete something in an email I am forwarding, there does not appear to be an 'Undo' facility, like there was in the previous version.

I would appreciate any help regarding these two issues

Thanks.

This looks like the check for email settings in the general tab

For undo, see the 3rd post by Winston

Thanks for your reply That's the 'window' I couldn't find ! Now that I know where it is (Extreme Top Left Icon), I can see the familiar 'Options' window..... which was under the 'Tools' menu in the previous version of WLM......

Re. the 'Undo/Redo' function - The thread you mentioned eventually explained it very well. However, I can't understand Microsoft's policy of virtually hiding these functions so deeply in the new version of WLM. They were much more visible in the earlier version..................

Thanks again for your help - it is truly appreciated
