HI
I apoligize for not being more specific
It appears that my son's account (MSN Messenger was updated with Windows
Live Messenger and now all of his email is opened through Outlook express ,
which he does not want to use.
Normally he would click on his MSN Messenger icon and have the ability to
access his email messages in MSN Mail format. That seems to have changed in
the last few days with the update of MSN Messenger to Window Live Messanger
All of our MSN email addresses are setup through Qwest with @msn.com as
opposed to @hotmail.com
He and I are both is using Vista ( Ihave Vita Business - he has Vista Home)
and IE 6 for OS and browser. Hopefully that makes more sense.
Any assistance would be greatly apprciated.
Thank you
StephanieH
