winmail process staying open


All of a sudden winmail stays open when I close it. I go to the applications
task manager and it's not there but then I go to processes and it in there.
It will not allow me to open winmail again. In addition when I create a
folder it freezes only the screen I created the folder in freezes. any
ideas?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Rich

Re: winmail process staying open


Hello Rich,

This may be due to your antivirus program if you have it's email
scanning option enabled. See the "FIRST" section of Problem One in this
tutorial to see if this may be the case.

For now, you can kill all instances winmail process in Task Manager.
Afterwards, you should be able to open Windows Mail again. Option Two in
this tutorial will help show you how to if needed.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
