Thanks for your reply, Winston. My concern is for a stealth
deployment. We use Deep Freeze so that nothing can change on our
computers without our knowledge and updates are turned off (our tech
guys periodically unfreeze and update) but we always want to be in
sync with the software that our students are using so that if MS did
push Windows Live Mail on their PCs we would have to be prepared.
WLM seems to be a strange bird - a replacement for both OE and Windows
Mail - that users may or may not choose to use so I wonder, if MS
doesn't choose to push it, why did they bother with it in the first
place?
