Any Experts in Windows Livemail Out There?

Now that Orange (EE) has ceased to provide emailing services, my wanadoo email address no longer works.

I now have a couple of gmail accounts. I have not deleted the wanadoo account from my desktop, as all of my old emails are there for reference purposes.

Is there any way that I can stop Livemail from trying (and failing) to connect and telling me that it cant?

Are you using gmail through Livemail or from the gmail website?

In Livemail (I don't have it, sorry, so can't check) look in tools/options there must be an option to 'automatically check for messages on start up' - remove the tick?

Is this it ...

I had live mail. It crashed big time on me and the backup only partially worked. IIRC it is no longer supported by Microsoft and it does have issues. I would move to something else. outlook is working well for me.

Thanks for the replies. I have now stopped using Livemail and gone over to Thunderbird. It allowed me to import the address book and all of the past gmails. it collects the new emails from Gmail.

If I go direct to the Gmail webpage it keeps wanting me to sign and then often won't accept my passwords. The more that I tried to sign in the more difficult it became, then it told me that someone in Kenya had my password.
Needless to say, the passwords have been changed.

I have left Livemail on the computer so that I can still look up old emails.

Thunderbird has an import command (under tools on my mac) that will import emails and contacts from other email clients on you system. Presume it will work with livemail
 
I have imported the address book from livemail, but some contacts are duplicated. Otherwise, so far so good.

Before the change to gmail only, livemail and gmail were set up somehow to send incoming emails to both livemail and to the email program on my Android tablet. It's not the gmail app but the other client that was installed on the tablet from new, I don't know what it is called. The gmail app on the tablet won't work anyway because it says that there was a problem in syncing and I should try later. I wouldn't be able to use it anyway as it has lots of little icons without labels, so I don't know what they mean.

The new problem is that now gmail wants to continue to send emails to my now defunct wanadoo account. Because it can't, as wanadoo has been closed down, I keep getting mail delivery failure notices sent to my other, infrequently used, gmail address. Most annoying.
