Solved Windows Live Mail - columns issue

[t-4-2]

Vista Home premium SP2, IE9, WLM 2009 ver.

I can't get the " size " coulmn to show at the Message List.

I set up the columns this way ......( screenshot )

But the Message List does not show it . No " size " column.......

Solution please ?
Thank you.

P.S. I know the " header " will show the size of the attachment. That is not the point.

Hi t-4-2,
Tried researching your problem but did not find a specific conclusion I'm afraid, but tried!
The only article was relating to Changing columns, may be some use.
How to Change the Columns Shown in Windows Live Mail, Windows Mail or Outlook Express - About Email

I have included screenshot of my old WM, should the size box be also checked?
Sorry, ages ago since I used this.


Hope you can work it out & fix.
Regards

Thank you for the reply.

I have no problem setting up Size column in WM.
It's the WLM that won't co-operate.

Try dragging the "from" column to the right. I just turned on my "size" column and moved it up and it does show, but I notice it's possible to accidentally overlap the columns which would inadvertently hide one of them.

Also try highlighting "size" in the columns list (in your first pic) and see what it says the pixel size is.

Very good ! And thank you.

The " pixel " is the key.
Mine was at 0, therefore it did not show. Stupid me. Never thought of that.
In my case, 70 pixels is the setting needed.
One minor point.... wish I could get rid of the " white envelope " icon. It's absolutely unnecessary.

Again, thank you.

True, it's unnecessary. Although, it does change,depending on if it is marked as read or unread. Can't see a way to do away with that though. Glad ur issue was resolved.
