I have a customer who is using Windows Live Mail (WLM).
He has 142 441 files that take 13.3Gb.
He keeps on loosing contacts everytime he quits WLM. In addition, He uses
the signature feature to preprogram replies to his emails. With WLM when you reply, they all disappear and only the default signature remains. Finally, every time he starts WLM, it is very slow because it scans his 142 441 files all the time.
So I recommended using Outlook. However, it is limited to 2Gb when we try
to import data from WLM.
Can you recommend a solution?
