Additional Details

I installed Windows Live Mail on 6 December 2011 and added a Google Mail account to it.  It was working fine until about a week ago when every time I went to check my mail it would give me the following message:

Windows Live Mail

Some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks.

Please review the list of errors below for more details.

1 of 2 tasks have completed successfully

I clicked on the Error tab in that window and there was nothing listed there.  I closed out of the windows and clicked on the button to check my mail again and no error message.  The next time I want to check my mail I get that error message and I close out of that window and check it again and it works with no issue.  It has been like this for about a week and it becoming annoying.

What is the issue and how do I fix it or are Google Mail accounts not compatible with this application.  I used the IMAP settings.

    I went to that so-called solution article and it told me:

    How to gather Log files for troubleshooting Windows Live Messenger related Errors

    I don't have issues with Windows Live Messenger.  I have issues with Windows Live MAIL

    Why am I given a solution article for something that has nothing to do with my issue.

    I take it that this is normal and that in order for this to work I need to go back to using Outlook as much as I don't want to.  I hate Outlook and uses too many resources, but at least it works.  Microsoft needs to fix Windows Live Mail so this will not happen again.
