windows live mail 2009

[gbp007]

There seems to be a big problem with the new windows live mail 2009 (Build 14.0.8050.1202) ..ever since installing it on my laptop which has xp and my desktop which has vista the wind0ws live mail 2009 wont start sometimes and i have to log on and off to make it start again..I have done clean uninstalls on both of my machines but i think this is a bug with this new build !..Anybody else having this problem also ?

I've had no problems since installing the latest version, I had it when running XP then installed it on my Vista desktop then installed the latest version in December and it works without any problems, I have 4 email accounts, RSS Feeds, Calendar and several newsgroups set up and they all work as they should.

Well the version i had before which was the last build 2007 version, you know the one with the toolbar icons it worked perfectly until i installed 2009..Sometimes this new build 2009 will start, but sometimes it wont start and i have to log back off and on..There is really something wrong here that microsoft has done and they should try to fix it and release a working version..

sometimes the wlmail.exe will remain open. Open task manager next time it happens, you should have wlmail.exe & perhaps another instance of it in the processes list.

not sure if there is a way to fix it

Yes that's what i have noticed that wlmail.exe stays open in the processes, i just found out..if i close the process then i can start wml again without having to log on and off again..Never happened with the other final version before this one..Hopefully microsoft addresses this issue..Which there was a way for wmail.exe to always shut down from the processes after shutting down the application..

i think it used to happen with wlmail 2007 on my pc when i first installed it.
