    edit a received email

    My previous Outlook allowed me to edit received emails, including the
    subject line, which was very helpful. Now, Vista Windows Mail doesn't show
    that option. Is editing possible with Windows Mail?

    That's one of the differences between Outlook, a premium, commercial email
    client, and Windows mail, a free client. FWIW, Outlook 2003 and later are
    fully compatible with Vista, so you can install and continue using it, if
    you care to. Outlook versions earlier than 2003 will run, but have some
    issues.

    If you forward it to yourself, you can edit the forwarded copy. I don't
    think
    you can edit the copy you originally received, though.
