Windows Live Mail saving emails as pictures

silvine · 2013-01-02 19:48:43

I am using Windows Live Mail. When I receive an email it saves the email as in My Pictures libary. These are saved as .eml files. This means I have to go in and manually delete each saved email. What could cause this and how can I fix it? Thanks.

Somewhere in your live mail settings the My Pictures folder has been set as the destination for saving emails or saving copies of emails.
