Windows Mail not showing

I've been using Vista RC1 for two weeks, but on the last few days I'm having
trouble with Windows Mail.

I click on it and it shows me the warnings that my IMAPS certificate is not
valid (and it isn't) just like before, the only diference is that the winmail
window never shows up.

I have the process winmail.exe running but have no way to access it.

Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?
 
Try removing the account and then re-add it......this worked for me and
there seems to be a bug when importing and exporting accounts and contacts.
 
And how am I supposed to remove the account if I can't access the WinMail?

Maybe I didn't explained myself well, the problem is that WinMail is running
(I can find it in the running processes in the Task Manager) but I don't see
WinMail anywhere, even when I get the new mail notification icon and click it
twice I still can't see WinMail.

Oh and btw, I can only "End Process" since WinMail only shows on the
Processes pane, not on the Applications.

So what are you saying? After rebooting and then starting WinMail there is
no user interface showing?

If that is the case, you either have a bad install or else some other
program is interfering. What else is running and what runs at startup?

If you are having these kinds of problems you may want to try re-installing
the OS......or is this the only problem you are having? After I installed,
the system asked me if I wanted to import from Outlook Express and I said
yes upon which it did fine but mis-spelled my name. Thus, I simply removed
the account, then added it back in, and everything has been fine since. By
the way, I did the upgrade not the clean install. On another machine I did
the clean install. The clean install took 17 minutes while the upgrade took
95 minutes. On both machines it mis-spelled the account name and I had to
remove and then re-add.
 
Well, I just went to regedit and deleted a few keys from the WinMail, now
it's working ok.

I'll try to reproduce the problem and if get again I'll isolate the right
registry key.
