    Windows Mail does not have an integrated calendar, except that a Calendar
    button on its toolbar will open a separate Windows Calendar, which has been
    largely superseded by the newer Windows Live Calendar.
    Also, the new Windows Live Mail beta now has an integrated calendar
    which automatically syncs with the web-based Windows Live Calendar.
    Now that you are thoroughly confused, which calendar are you interested in?

    In Outlook 2007, click "Calendar", make the calendar you want to export
    active, right click it, select "Save As", and save it - this makes an
    iCalendar (.ics) file which Windows Calendar can import. Open Windows
    Calendar, 'File|Import', browse to the .ics file you just created. I just
    tried this and it seems to work fine.

    thank you for your response. And now that you have confused me completely
    :-), I am trying to export the calendar from Outlook 2007 to "Windows mail".
    Is that at all possible?
    Looking forward to your response.

    thank you very much. It worked but did not import 'names'. Nevertheless it
    has worked partially and I thank you very much

    I've never tried it since I don't use Outlook, but it should support
    exporting to the .ics file format, which Windows Calendar will import.
