    Making Windows Live mail my default carrier


    My installer set up Thunderbird for e-mail use. I would like to use Windows live mail. Will this mess up Thunderbird if I ever have to use it again.

    Hello Hobie, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    Not at all. You will be able to use both of them at the same time if you like. All that matters is which one you would like to set to open emails with by default.


    Hope this helps, :)

    One more thing to consider is by having 2 email clients you may get double emails, and double spam.
