Good news and bad news. First the bad news. Windows Mail is part of the vista version, it cannot be removed. The good news is you can disable it.
1.) right click on Windows Mail (shortcut or folder),choose Properties
2.) click Security tab, click Edit.
3.) under DENY, check all the boxes.
4.) click APPLY, click OK.
That's it. Windows Mail is disabled. Please reply the result. Thank you.
