| 1154930 | 2010-11-20 21:11:00 | Just notice that Windows Mail has disappeared from Win 7 Home Premium. Remembered ever configured Windows Mail for a mate when Win 7 just released. Substitute for Outlook Express? This old friend of mine just bought himself a new PC with Win 7 Home Prem only to find that his favourite Outlook Express has disappeared and rang me this morning and I told him to use Windows Mail but later I found out that Windows Mail has gone, too. What should we use now? |

| 1154933 | 2010-11-20 21:29:00 | Yep. Do an Export from OE then import to Live Mail if OE is still working. See this:- www.pcdon.com HTH |

I find it difficult to understand why anyone would use a MS email system when they keep changing almost yearly. Thunderbird just flows along as Thunderbird and all settings I had many years ago are still relevant. |

| 1154935 | 2010-11-20 21:52:00 | You can Use Windlws Live Mail 2011 As Snorkbox suggested, it works perfectly. Follow the link he posted on exporting the mails from Outlook Express, then simply import them into Windows Live mail. Two things / Advice. Manually setup your user account with user name and passwords first, manually set up the servers as well, these mail programs hardly ever get them right. Second thing -- when you import the mails from Outlook Express backup, they wont show in the folders ( inbox sent itemes etc) they will be under the store folders - Imported Folder Example from customers PC (www.imagef1.net.nz)- So you can move them to inbox etc if you want or leave them there. All New mails will go to inbox. |
