Re: setting up my email to the laptop

I also am having problems. The new e-mail is supposed to be able to import
the outlook express mail and contacts, but I can't figure out how to do it?
Anyone know please?

Re: setting up my email to the laptop

Windows Mail will not work with free Hotmail accounts.
You can upgrade to Windows Live Mail which accommodates Hotmail
accounts as well as POP/IMAP accounts like Gmail.

For Gmail setup instructions, see

See here:

Bring the .wab file across also if you want the contacts. After you copy
the
files to a directory on your hard disk, but before you import them into
Windows Mail, make sure the copies are read-write instead of readonly.
