Is this the latest version? If it is then this is the last one that MS is going to do, right? PJ :crying

1179627 2011-02-18 09:27:00 It is the latest version, but has been replaced with Windows Mail (Vista) or Windows Live Mail.

Have you seen or tried those email programs?

Why not use Outlook rather than OE6 as you did have Office 2003 when I was last at your place?

Or as Jen suggests Win Live mail which may not be viable under WinXP and there are other mail clients as well.

What operating system are you wanting this for? Is it still WinXP?

Are you wanting to transfer to Win 7 or what?

1179629 2011-02-18 21:29:00 Jen & Snorkbox,

Due to the Billy T Daughter Laptop thread I have been given a Toshiba Sattelite L10 laptop with XP SP3 Proff 2002 on it. 40 GB HD & 765 Ram. It is already half full.

I have been on OE ever since w98. I have tried other programms but always back to OE. On my Desktop I have indeed got MS Office 2003 & at one time tried Outlook. I found that it gobbled up the 1GB Ram I had in at that time, now 2 GB, Took Outlook offline & put back OE.

I would like to try Outlook on this Laptop but am worried that it will also use up all the Ram & processor.

I guess I could always only load the Outlook part & try it, eh. PJ

1179630 2011-02-19 11:48:00 Must agree PJ. I too used Outlook for a while, then Thunderbird, but ultimately for various reasons decided OE6 did everything I wanted. Sometimes simple is best. Winston001 (3612)
