ARD · Dec 15, 2009

After installing Windows 7 and reading all the posts about lack of email, I have found Outlook Express 6 for download here

Code:

BUT - not tried it on Windows 7....................yet

Qdos · Dec 15, 2009

Outlook Express v6 was around when XP was launched.

Did you check the issue date?

It's not compatible with W7...

ARD · Dec 15, 2009

That's what I thought, but, I've installed a couple of other apps that are not new and they seem to work ok, but as OE6 gors into the system might cause a problem.

I might put in an old HD and install Windows 7 and try it.

You could use Windows Live Mail instead

Eeeeewwww.... Go out to Mozilla and get Thunderbird version 3 for free.. then install the cool add-ons and get it to sync with your google address book and then add the lightning addon and you can have calendar functions just like the full blown outlook.. all for the amazingly low price of FREE!

Eeeeeewwww.. Outlook Express?? Yuck... Bad Bad Bad.... Yuck...

Qdos · Dec 15, 2009

According to some sources, Thunderbird III ain't exactly 'all go' with some of its third party plugins... a few glitches have shown up already... and for my part I bet it's nothing like as easy to move the message and data stores as has been the case with Windows eMail clients...

I read your comment about Outlook and some of the replies. I can say without hesitation, you do not want to go the Outlook route, useful life has come to an end. You may wind up with others, down the road, but now start with windows live mail. It was made specifically with Windows 7 in mind. In fact, it is my mail application. Go to the windows live website Mail - Windows Live and you will find a choice of many goodies, all for free that you can choose from, windows live mail is only one. There is messenger and many other exciting programs. So why not give products made for Windows 7 a chance before trying others? You can always delete them if you do not like it. You may even want to make a system restore point and try everything out for a week or so and if you do not like anything you can just use system restore to go back to square one. Yes, you could always go to the control panel and uninstall, but so many times remnants of the program remain with that technique. In any event, I wish you a hpapy holiday and hope that you are happy with your final decision.

Windows Mail is also a defunct product, replaced by Windows Live Mail.

Windows Mail is better than Live Mail to me, I use it as my default mail client and it works great.

richc46 · Dec 25, 2009

I think that WM is better than WLM, only with the coloring. I dislike the pale colors used in WLM. They even have a method to change the color, but does not work very well.

Wii Master 64 · Dec 25, 2009

Yeah, even the colors are pale and uninteresting. But the overall functions of Windows Mail is just better to me.

Live mail inferior to Outlook Express.

Windows live mail is so inferior to outlook express. You cannot forward nor paste photos in an email in Live Mail. There is no solution to this problem! All these years and MS are just spanking their monkey.

There should be 3 ways to send photos:
"Photo Email" (uses thumbnail images and Sky Drive)
Attach file (same as "Insert File as Attachment")
Insert Image Inline (with the cursor at the place you want it placed).

I have heard that images may not be included in forwarded messages in WLM 2011. But you can still put them in the forwarded message by saving them to your hard drive and using any of the above methods.

tanzanos · Apr 22, 2012

Whatever happened to just pressing "Forward"? Win7 is supposed to be an upgrade to XP and likewise WLM to Outlook express. I tried everything even to forward the e-mail as an attachment; It wont send the photos. I don't want to use a web based client and if I cannot forward a simple e-mail with photos then I will UPGRADE to XP! :cry:

I forward stuff to a friend of mine every so often, including the occasional picture. Right click on the email, Forward, enter the info, and it works just fine.
I don't get the issue :huh:

Does it also work when you use the Forward button while reading the original Message in its own window?
Are you using WLM 2011 (with the ribbon) or WLM 2009?

It also Forwards properly for me but I'm still using WLM 2009. If you are using the 2011 version, you may have found a 4th (and no doubt the easiest) way to forward an email and include the pictures in WLM 2011.

MWRed · Apr 22, 2012

2011.

I don't know...it just works the way I do it.

Although, I do have other odd problems with using WLM sometimes.
Changes on the Charter end (my ISP) really seem to make a mess of the settings in it. I have to go back through, set all of them again, and it works...even though nothing actually is different, just re-entered.

I've bounced between WLM and TBird and can't really decide which one I want to use. they both have their crappy problems, but I hate using web mail, so i'm kind of stuck.
TBird feels too much like Firefox, bulky and slow for an email client.
WLM.....eh, I have used it since it came out, but it's not all that user friendly sometimes.

tanzanos · Apr 23, 2012

WLM 2011 Does not forward the pictures in messages. Also you cannot copy paste pictures into messages. You must have WLM 2009 because WLM 2011 does not forward pictures.
