    Windows mail VS live mail

    Is there anything that is extra in windows mail that is not available in
    live mail?
    Is there any way to uninstall windows mail since it seems to be integrated
    with vista?

    The only Windows Mail feature I miss in Windows Live Mail is the
    "Show All Messages/Hide Read Messages" selector on the toolbar.
    In fact, I miss it so much that I won't use WLM for reading newsgroups.

    No, you can't uninstall WM. Just leave it dormant.

    I think I've seeen that some of the HTML editing fits in this category.

    It's very difficult to uninstall without doing the same to the rest of
    Vista.
    However, you can keep it from doing much if you start it by removing
    all the accounts under it. You can also delete all the shortcuts that
    make it easy to start.

    I agree but it is not such a headache since you can always change the view.
    I like feeds reader as bonanza without having to read them in IE.

    As a frequent responder, I would have to click View, Current View, Show All Messages,
    and then View, Current View, Hide Read Messages, and I would have to do that over 100
    times per day. It gets tiring after a while.
