I had a slew of clients come in with a Error on Windows Live Mail saying that there is no Disk Space on the hard drive, and WLM can not be opened.
This is all from a Windows 7 to 10 upgrade, I have updated WLM to the latest 2012, but then on a few machines have to backup email and re create the profile. ugh....
Looking for a alternative for people, as most do not like the Windows 10 Mail (too basic). And WLM seems to be more of a headache than its worth now. (attaching pictures with a gallery kills the sent items unless you have signed into a MS account, and more....)
I have been testing ThunderBird:
Very Custom, supports Plugins, can import from WLM. Might be too much for a senior to get use to, to export email you need a plugin installed.
eM Client:
Looks like Outlook Express, Saves Email in eml format, can import from WLM. Only Supports 2 Emails (free version) has some integrated features like Calendar for gmail etc. Nag screen on free version every so often when you start the program.
Outlook:
Awesome! we use it for the business,easy to import from WLM. Cons Price....If the client has Outlook installed we do suggest moving to Outlook but like ThunderBird it can be a little bit of a learning curve for seniors.
Any Other options I can look at you you have used currently or in the past?
