Bernice: when in doubt, google

So far no luck. entering 0x8ccc0003 into the search, I get a zillion hits, but all of then questions which is just a consolation since it seems you're not alone with the problem.

rabbitoid: I did google :( no answers tho :(

Bernice: No answers, but a lot of questions. Welcome to yahoo, google, or any other mail provider who's actually answering questions.

Bernice: Take a look here: http://windowslivehelp.com/thread.aspx?threadid=780d83c9-dd37-467b-a1f6-8b469fb5828e

You just need to scroll past the understandable ranting of disgusted customers and the terrible answers by Microsoft support staff - you'll find an answer from "Windows Live John Dominic U.", that apparently helped out the guys in that thread that had that problem. Cliff notes: when sending an email, WLM assumes, that you use Hotmail anyway, because that's just how MS rolls, and creates an album online. Now when you don't use Hotmail or w/e MS ****, then that step fails, and it produces the error number you get, for which apparently 90% of MS staff can't tell what it means. The solution is to send it as an attachment instead of inline - or so I guess, I mainly skimmed that thread. But following that guy's guidelines seems to help.

toedder: thank you so much :)
