Yes similar to express. Yes you can import Windows Mail to win7. It is a desktop client. A SevenForums tutorial can help you with installing it. However Win 7 is moving on to Windows Live Mail. That being the successor to OE and WM. I recommend skipping WM and going to WLM. Good luck to you with your mail solution.

Kas Tutorial for making Windows Mail work for you, You will also need to find the files from vista x86 for 32 bit. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/5481-windows-mail.html
I wish I could help you with that but I do not have the files as I only have x64 files and they will not work with 32 bit.
The wlm works on the desktop just like you want, Have you looked at the link provided above by rsvr ?
