I am running eM client 7.2.36908 as a possible replacement for Windows Live Mail. I am getting repeated client application errors with the text “An error has occurred in the application which prevents it from continuing”. When the program restarts it fails again. I saved the error file which is huge (191k) . Upon restart a check for corrupted database and inconsistent data occurs with no errors and then the application fails immediately.
Fortunately I had a recent backup of the eM client database folder and I was able to use it without any errors. The last thing I did before the application failed was to send an email to my iCloud account which is causing problems in Windows Live Mail.
What @ email (address domain and email settings) are you using in EMClient. eg: @hotmail.com, @live.com, @gmail.com etc. Also are you using Windows 10 and what version.
Yes sending an email from my iCloud account via eM client causes the application to fail. I can use other platforms such as Apple mail via iPhone and iCloud.com web mail via Google Chrome and send iCloud email without problems.
Yes does sound like the @icloud domain settings have some compatibility issue with emclient. My only suggestion would be to eg: forward the iCloud account to a Gmail acct and pick that up with emclient till that issue is resolved. You can put your iCloud email address as the default reply address in emclient when sending.
I had to do a similar thing with my live.com and hotmail accts as they just would never work correctly with emclient no matter what IMAP settings i tried. Hopefully emclient future updates might fix iCloud issues.
I have noticed that my IMAP accounts are getting duplicate emails in the Sent folder for each email sent using the eM Client. So I disabled the “Save copy of sent messages to Sent folder” mail setting.
After this change I no longer have eM Client application crashes when sending mail from my iCloud account !! No more error loops ! Happy new year.
