If you are at home, you are probably connecting to the Internet via
Roadrunner. In that case, the most likely cause of your problem is
your antivirus. Which antivirus are you running? Some of them cause
problems with Windows Mail over time.

Is there a support number I can call for assistance?

Have you tried RoadRunner tech support? (Free, I would assume).

Microsoft Support:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx

($59.00 per incident, last I heard).

Did you try disabling e-mail scanning? I see from another post minutes ago
you mention you have Norton 360. Did you remove it and reinstall without
e-mail scanning?

FYI: Users have had problems with Norton in Outlook Express, WinMail and
Windows Live Mail. I would strongly suggest you get rid of it completely
via Add/Remove Programs and then run this tool.

Download and run the Norton Removal Tool:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...05033108162039

Then get a good, free AV that works well with Windows e-mail clients, such
as Avast, AVG, or Microsoft Security Essentials.

AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition
http://free.grisoft.com/ww.download?prd=afe

Do a custom installation and opt out of e-mail scanning.

Avast:
http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

In the case of Avast, choose Custom Installation and under Resident
Protection, uncheck: Internet Mail and Outlook/Exchange.

Microsoft Security Essentials:
http://www.microsoft.com/security_es...s/default.aspx

(No e-mail scanning to worry about)

Norton security products are among the top three troublemakers for
Windows Mail. Symptoms often don't surface until several months have
gone by, or until an update occurs.
First, be sure to disable its email scanning, for the reason explained here:
http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ning/index.htm

Disabling the Norton program is often insufficient. If so, do a trial uninstall,
followed by using their debris removal tool:
http://service1.symantec.com/Support...05033108162039

Instead of uninstalling your antivirus, another option is to upgrade to
Windows Live Mail, which is more resistant to the adverse effects of overly
intrusive antivirus products: http://download.live.com/wlmail
