I had outlook already on the machine so I just turned it on. I got the reading pane configured to look similar to WLM. Glad to see this note, at least my new mail on my new domain is working with AF.
I had a good many year run with WLM. I like the fact you can right click a header and instantly see message source. The search is better and simpler than outlook. But if someone sent you a v card or meeting invite it was always a pain. And yeah, it was a bit buggy but not so much so that I couldn’t live with it. Until this morning. I found a database restoral procedure for it that I may try. Hopefully my home machine is still OK.

WLM had some limitations - IIRC it would just crash when exposed to a huge number of messages.

So switching to outlook but that is painful. I rolled back the windows update that happened last night but still dead WLM… sob… Have resisted outlook for years. Few times it would be nice. When someone sends a meeting or contact at least I can read it without having to use a text editor and parsing through the complex crap… -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
