Email does not "drop" to a specific email program.
Email is a universal protocol. A POP mail account can be
accessed from any email program.
All you need to do is copy your settings in Outlook to the equivalent
setting in a Windows Mail account. Or you can follow the directions
from your provider:

Also, if your copy of Outlook is version 2003 or later, you can install
it on your Vista computer.
