Trying to install and setup new HP w/Vista for friend. Initially have had
good luck, but now trying to get email established for him, found out Vista
only comes with a program called Windows Mail. Where in the world to you
locate it?



PS glad I'm helping him before I upgrade.

Shortcut: Start Menu\All Programs\Windows Mail

Target: C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe

Hi,

Windows Mail is basically an updated Outlook Express. Simply click start and
type "windows mail" to locate it. You can then pin it to the start menu or
add an icon to the quicklaunch bar to make future access easier.

Very similar to Outlook Express, but does not support http mail access like
hotmail. Therefore you will need to download Windows Live Mail desktop
application.
