Like most of those I read, I too dislike Vista, but that is what I have ... and I am using Window Mail, which is okay ..EXCEPT in my contact list ... I do not want to install a photo for each contact, but can not figure out how to remove the 'photo frame' ... is it possible to do so ???

Windows Mail is inadequate which doesn't replace Outlook Express because it no longer supports webmail accounts like Yahoo & Hotmail to register with your ISP email.
The answer is to install Outlook Today which supports both POP3 & IMAP acct setup so you can receive both emails together in same software.

I have Vista on a new PC running Windows Live Mail, and an old PC with Outlook Express 6. I'm happy to start using WLM, but need to keep and access my mail archive - how do I transfer it from my old computer to my new one? Is there a place I can copy the .dbx files? Or should I import my OE6 emails into Outlook 2003 on my old PC, and then move them across to Outlook 2003 which I could re-install on my new PC?

Thank you, thank you, thank you! That was really helpful. As a new Vista owner, I was wanting to install OE. Now I don't have to.

I have a large email broadcast, and am finding Windows Live Mail just totally impossible. It is so hard to see all your email....collect in folders....it is a very inadequate substitute for Outlook Express. Outlook is good, but if you are running several identities, not user friendly at all, and I have to run our business on Outlook. I am soooo disappointed in Vista and Windows Live Mail----why couldnt they leave a good product alone!!! Someone mentioned Outlook Today---would that be helpful to me, and would it work on Vista?

I need to sync my Samsung phone to my pc (vista OS). I have windows live mail and also have the samsung pc suite loaded on my pc, but any time i want to sync, its telling me that i need outlook or outlook express. i thought you said that windows live mail is a replacement on vista?? So why am i having issues?

I was in the same situation until I found a new email program called Postbox. Google it and download. I think you'll find it like OE only better.

Where can I download outlook express 7. I tried to install internet explorer 8 and appear to have lost outlook express. Although I have deleted IE8 now my out look express programmme has disappeared along with the facility to restore my computer to an earlier date.
I would be grateful for any help.
Many thanks Iris

Thank you for saying that I do not need to load Outlook express since I have Windows Mail which comes with the Vista OS. I have been experiencing problems with picking up emails on Virgin webmail as most emails are not getting through, and thought this might be because I did not have Outlook Express installed on my laptop, now that you have ruled this out as a cause it looks as if the problem lies with Virgin webmail.
