Re: question about Verizon email services
I got the e-mail last week and jumped through all of the hoops to save my Verizon.net e-mail accounts. The good news is the AOL webmail interface is much more screen reader friendly. The down side for me was wrestling with the Verizon webmail interface. The screen layout is a little jumbled so go all the way through each page to be sure your not missing anything. Admittedly, I've always had trouble with that website, so I'm not sorry to see it go away. Here's what I did: Login to your account with this link: https://webmail.verizon.com/signin/login.jspThe first screen asks for your login name. The second one wants your password, and like I said go through the whole page before you click continue. I had a captcha screen pop up above and sometimes below the continue button. A couple of times I got a security challenge question, very skitzofrinic. Whenyou get logged in click on the "All mail" link and you'll be presented with your two e-mail transfer options. Switch to AOL and keep your Verizon.net account with all of your mail, contacts, address book, ect. Or, create an account with any e-mail provider and move it all by yourself manually. I clicked on the button to use the AOL option and was taken directly to the AOL login page, which had some of my information already pre-filled into the form. There's a pull-down menu with an option to choose which e-mail address your transferring, but what you'll find is your actual address and an alpha numeric equivalent, I chose the actual e-mail name and it was the right choice. At the end of the form you'll need to either put in your cell phone number to receive a numeric password or you can use your home phone and receive a call with a pre-recorded voice that tells you your numeric number. It's a lot easier then a captcha, that's for sure. after that you'll need to set up your account with a new password, your birthday and a security question. If you use a mail program like Outlook than you'll need to change your account settings. Your username is your full Verizon e-mail address, like "yourname@...". Your password is what ever you created during the setup. Incoming Mail Server: imap.aol.com (Use port 143 for standard or 993 for SSL connections) POP is also still supported. SMTP Outgoing Server Address: smtp.aol.com Set the port to 587 For a secure connection, check the SSL option for IMAP/POP and TLS for SMTP in your mail program. HTH, Blaster

affected with a link that enables you to keep your domain while support
is transferred to AOL.

I am getting questions from folks on Verizon about them changing
something or doing away with their email servicing for private
customers. I am not on that system so I have no personal information
on this matter. If anybody out there does please let me know what if
anything is going to change along with what the average person needs

Re: question on reading e-mails
For the record, Outlook Express can import and
export to EML files, but it is not the format it uses for storing
messages. It stores messages in DBX files.

Hi Vicky & John,
There's a free program called EML

Express uses the, .eml, file extension. Info is below:
Website / Link:
Documentation:
Version 1.7
Updated 02/13/2013
FREE
PROGRAM FEATURES
ceml is a free eml / nws file viewer.
Neither Windows 7 nor Windows 8 come with a program capable of reading eml or
nws files (message files from Microsoft
email programs Outlook Express,
Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail). So users of Windows 7 and Windows 8
needn't download an entire suite of programs in
order to read and browse
their messages -- they can download this free program instead. This program
also works in Windows XP and Windows Vista.
ceml screen shot
If the user browses to a directory
of eml / nws files, it will show the list of files in a message list along
with the message properties such as Received
date, Subject, To, From,
Newsgroups, Size, References, Message_Id and File name for each file. There is
also a column labeled "A" which will show the letter
"A" if the message has
attachments.
The user can then select the
message in the list and it will display in the preview pane below the message.
The preview pane can be disabled via the View
menu.
Columns in the message list can be
reordered and clicking on a column header will sort by that column in one
direction and clicking again will sort in
the other direction. Sorted
columns will be prepended with a " ^ " character when sorted ascending and
with a " _ " character when sorted descending.
The message view is now filtered.
Many email senders use linked images to track recipients, so linked images are
now blocked by default and the user can
click the button to enable showing
the linked images. Similarly, dynamic HTML, such as scripting, is also
blocked by default. To enable such dynamic
HTML, the user must first
go to View | Enable Full HTML and then the checkbox labeled "Full HTML" will
be enabled and the user must also check this box
to show a message with the
HTML unfiltered.
If the message has attachments, then
when then user selects the message and it is displayed, a box with the
character "A" inside is displayed in the upper
left of the displayed
message. Clicking on this box will display the list of attachments and the
size of each attachment as well as a "Save Attachments"
menu item. If the
user clicks on the name of an attachment in this list, then the user is
prompted to save the attachment in the location the user designates.
If the
"Save Attachments" menu item is clicked, the user is prompted for the location
to save all the attachments. Note that the File menu also includes
a "Save
Attachments" menu choice. When clicked, the user is then prompted and the
attachments are saved to the designated location. This option also
saves
embedded images as well as attachments, even if the message does not
have attachments listed. Also with this option, one can choose to Save
Attachments
for all messages selected in the list at one time.
The File menu includes Page Setup,
Print, and Print Preview features. The program inserts the abbreviated message
header (From, To, Subject, Date) at the
top of the first page.
Double clicking the message in the
message list will result in the message opening in its own resizable
window.
If one presses the key combination
CTRL-F3 (or View | Message Source) the message source will display a separate
window.
The key combination CTRL-F2 (View
| Message HTML) will display the HTML source of the message (or the plain text
one if there is no HTML).
NOTE: If one clicks on a single
eml or nws file, one can choose the program with which to open the file.
If one browses to "c:\program files\ceml\ceml.exe"
then one can set ceml as
the program with which to open the file and then set it as the default program
to open eml and nws files. The command line
"c:\program files\ceml.exe" "%1"
will also open the file where %1
represents the path to a given eml or nws file. Note that there is a
space between the quoted path and the "%1".
FREEWARE
This software
only reads files and does not alter them. However, the author makes no
guarantees as to this software and the user, upon downloading and
executing
it, does so at his own risk.
ceml is free. It may not be sold
or used for promotional purposes. DO NOT DISTRIBUTE! Rather

version of the
software from its source.

Hi
Vicky,
The
fact that you are not using OE complicates things somewhat, especially
relating to the ‘manual’ conversion. To manually convert you would need to
have OE installed and also install Windows Live Mail. While OE is a Microsoft
product, it is in no way compatible with MS Outlook and Outlook will not
import OE emails directly. The manual process requires importing OE mail into
Live Mail and then exporting to a PST file. There are, as Gene mentioned,
3rd party software vendors that provide DBX to PST converters which
is the most effective means of converting.
As
a matter of interest, how did you extract the files/emails you say you have in
a folder, which were originally in Outlook Express?

Hi
Everyone,
I
am currently using Outlook 2007, and I just don’t like it maybe because of all
the whistles and bells that seem to come along with the program. I was
talking to MS sometime last year about email programs, and they told me MS
doesn’t support Outlook 07 anymore, I asked them about me using Windows Live
Mail, and they said MS doesn’t support that either. Do you know if this is
true? MS wanted me to purchase Outlook 2016, but I just don’t want Outlook as an
email client anymore. I will adventually find an email program without all
the whistles and bells though.

I
just checked. Outlook used to support EML but that changed at some
point. I haven't done enough checking to see how to work around the
problem or perhaps convert the files to the format Outlook works with.
But
the discussion raises another question. Outlook Express isn't supposed to
be used beyond XP. There is a version that has been altered so that it can
be. Some people use it without problems and some people have
problems. But is there any particular reason why you want to use
Outlook? Is it coming with the computer? You can use Windows Live
Mail or Thunderbirrd and they are both free. I know that Windows Live Mail
uses EML. I don't know about Thunderbird but I would expect it to.
It's a widely used format.
If
you want to read eml files in Outlook, I may have more information about that in
a later message.

EML
is a widely used e-mail format. I would be very surprised if Outlook
doesn't use it or work with it. If it is your default e-mail program,
pressing enter on any saved message in that format should cause it to open in
the program.
Just
so you know, you have a lot of other choices than Outlook Express. Windows
Live Mail uses the format, and I would think e-mail programs do in
general.

Hi
Vicky,
The
fact that you are not using OE complicates things somewhat, especially relating
to the ‘manual’ conversion. To manually convert you would need to have OE
installed and also install Windows Live Mail. While OE is a Microsoft product,
it is in no way compatible with MS Outlook and Outlook will not import OE emails
directly. The manual process requires importing OE mail into Live Mail and then
exporting to a PST file. There are, as Gene mentioned, 3rd party
software vendors that provide DBX to PST converters which is the most effective
means of converting.
As
a matter of interest, how did you extract the files/emails you say you have in a
folder, which were originally in Outlook Express?

Re: question about Verizon email services

Verizon is indeed ending its email service, but is offering
customers with a "verizon.net" account to have support transferred
over to AOL, while maintaining their "verizon.net" domain. This
is verified by my call to Verizon tonight. There was supposed to
be an email sent to all affected with a link that enables you to
keep your domain while support is transferred to AOL.

I
am currently using Outlook 2007, and I just don’t like it maybe because of all
the whistles and bells that seem to come along with the program. I was
talking to MS sometime last year about email programs, and they told me MS
doesn’t support Outlook 07 anymore, I asked them about me using Windows Live
Mail, and they said MS doesn’t support that either. Do you know if this is
true? MS wanted me to purchase Outlook 2016, but I just don’t want Outlook as an
email client anymore. I will adventually find an email program without all

I just checked. Outlook used to support EML but that
changed at some point. I haven't done enough checking to see how to work
around the problem or perhaps convert the files to the format Outlook works
with.
But the discussion raises another question. Outlook Express
isn't supposed to be used beyond XP. There is a version that has been
altered so that it can be. Some people use it without problems and some
people have problems. But is there any particular reason why you want to
use Outlook? Is it coming with the computer? You can use Windows
Live Mail or Thunderbirrd and they are both free. I know that Windows Live
Mail uses EML. I don't know about Thunderbird but I would expect it
to. It's a widely used format.
If you want to read eml files in Outlook, I may have more information

Re: question on reading e-mails
Hi Everyone, I am currently using Outlook 2007, and I just don’t like it maybe because of all the whistles and bells that seem to come along with the program. I was talking to MS sometime last year about email programs, and they told me MS doesn’t support Outlook 07 anymore, I asked them about me using Windows Live Mail, and they said MS doesn’t support that either. Do you know if this is true? MS wanted me to purchase Outlook 2016, but I just don’t want Outlook as an email client anymore. I will adventually find an email program without all the whistles and bells though. Janet Tomorrow's Another Day, Another Way, and If Tomorrow Never Comes, Problem Solved!

Subject: Re: [TechTalk] question on reading e-mails I just checked. Outlook used to support EML but that changed at some point. I haven't done enough checking to see how to work around the problem or perhaps convert the files to the format Outlook works with. But the discussion raises another question. Outlook Express isn't supposed to be used beyond XP. There is a version that has been altered so that it can be. Some people use it without problems and some people have problems. But is there any particular reason why you want to use Outlook? Is it coming with the computer? You can use Windows Live Mail or Thunderbirrd and they are both free. I know that Windows Live Mail uses EML. I don't know about Thunderbird but I would expect it to. It's a widely used format.

Re: question on reading e-mails
Here is an answer from a Microsoft site that
provides more information. The short answer is that for your version of
Outlook, you can just make it the default e-mail program and press enter on an
EML message. This may not work for some earlier versions, as discussed in
this brief excerpt.
Gene
It is possible to do this but since support for
this in Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 was only introduced after their releases,
make sure you have the latest updates installed for Outlook before attempting
this registry fix.
Note: Outlook 2010 and later have native support for
opening eml-files and also do this by default so no registry fix is needed. If
Outlook doesn’t open the eml-file, make sure it is set as the default handler
for eml-files.

2. How can I change my search engine from Bing to Google?
I am setting up a new computer and having trouble with those items.
