Ok, I know you experts have answered this loads of times and are probably
getting fed up with this same question.

In windows mail, I have "pop3" and "smtp" for incoming & out going e-mail.
I know by scrolling through some of the answers here, that you are probably
going to ask me to post the whole error message in full which I will do in
due course. I would however, like to know how to stop these error messages
appearing, 0x800ccc0e and 0x800ccc0d, any ideas?

I come at this question from a different angle though. I have an account
with "Windows live Mail" and this works great, I can send and receive e-mails
with no problem. So my first question is, "Do I really need windows mail as
well"? Secondly, "Is it any use to keep it, as it shows up In my "start
menu" ? Thirdly, Can it be used In conjunction with "Windows live Mail" so
that Copies of the "live Mail" account can also go into the "Mail" account
So rendering the "Mail" account like an archive, so if I accidentally delete
an e-mail in my "live mail" account, there still will be a copy on the
"Windows Mail" account ?

Apart from this, I have had a hell of a time trying to get into these
discussion groups, I got in through an error message
instead of the usual way I use to, which was to go to "Windows help and
support" and then click on"microsoft communities". In this case, I think I
might of clicked on something that I shouldn't have. If I have filled in the
newsgroup information wrongly or I have accidentally Clicked on the newsgroup
in the "accounts" section of "Windows Mail" properties and Inadvertently
clicked on something, either way, I am asking, how do I Put this right, What
information should I put in, to put this right? Are the news groups uniquely
linked To the "Windows Mail" program and should I keep it for this reason?
Or should I simply delete it altogether as I do not need it at all ? I know
you will be reading this and thinking "What a dummy and another nutter", but
I am sure that one of the knowledgeable MVP's In these forums will know
exactly what i am on about? Having said that, any and all helpful replies
are welcome. Thanks in advance


"pop3" and "smtp" are not valid server names. Ask your mail provider how to set it up.

If you have Windows Live Mail you don't need Windows Mail.
