Can I transfer my outlook express emails etc to Vista

The above subject heading really probably says it all.

I am awaiting my upgrade to arrive, when I had this new computer I
successfully transferred emails I need to keep from the old computer to this
one and also managed to export my address book.

Will I be able to do that with the Vista email package, as from what I have
read it doesn't have outlook express on, or can I download outlook express
from somewhere to Vista ??

Thanks for any help

Vista has Windows Mail which is very similar to OE6 and yes you can transfer
your messages and address book which will become contacts.
