Hotmail/Live/Outlook.com (all the same!) goes down. A lot. It has nothing to do with your end's equipment. If one of their servers goes south, it drags. It shows up badly because it keeps EVERYTHING except your message headers and preferences on its servers. That includes your attachments, mail, mail aliases, and address book. You rely on their servers to be hot and spicy, and they ain't always so. If you complain (I have) they'll get back to you after things are fixed and report no problem found.

Sometimes that happens. Not often. Usually DNS server with bad or old info. Slow to update. . bunch of address's choices to load Hotmail www.hotmail.com www.live.com www.outlook.com might look in your recent activity for any odd things; account.live.com Here is a link that might be useful: OneDrive.Live.com This post was edited by mikie on Sun, Jul 13, 14 at 19:23

well everyone I tried all the suggestions still no go...so what I did cuz I needed the info in it, was to do a copy and paste to an email that I sent to myself and printed it that way. Here is a thought and I'll run it by you guys, it looks like the long email was sent in something called MIME...don't know what that is but that may have something to do with it. In any event thanks to all for the replies.

Zep, I downloaded Windows Live again and all the other programs that were listed there. Now everything is working again as it should. Maybe my Windows Live program got corrupted some how and that caused the problem I was having. Thank you. Kudzu9, Photo E-mail re-sized the photographs to thumbnails (230mb) prior to sending but they still never left my computer for whatever reason? That has cleared up now with Zep's linked and downloaded programs. Ravencajun, It must have been too early for me this morning when I sent in my question. I should have said, Drag and Drop, not Copy and Paste, sorry about that. Thank you all for your responses and help. "Horton"
