Vista - Windows Mail Help

Click on Help in Windows Mail and you get Windows Help! Is there any
way to just get Windows Mail Help?

Get Help for WM here, either from the menu, or by pressing F1.

Thanks for responding. Whilst that puts Windows Mail Help in the
window it is only part of Windows Help!

Windows Mail Help is very limited i.e. much less documented than the
latest Outlook Express Help.

Hi Gerry,

There are Help topics about Windows Mail included as part of Windows Vista's
Help system.

By clicking F1 (or selecting View Help from the Menu) the "Working with
Windows Mail" topic will appear with links to other topics that can help you
get started with Windows Mail. (Online version available here:
http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...71a521033.mspx)

You can also use the search functionality of the Help system and use
keywords to find specific topics, search for additional help topics online
using the "Windows Help and How-to" site
(http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win.../default.mspx), or by post
your questions in a newsgroup.

Thanks,

What you say is true but it does not address my question.

How do you get specific Windows Mail Help without getting Windows
Vista Help!

If you select Help in Windows Mail you expect to Windows Mail Help.
If you select Help in Windows Vista you expect Windows Vista Help
not Help for every other Microsoft Application! If you select Help
in Excel you do not want Word Help as well as Excel Help just
because you have Microsoft Office!

Have I made the question crystal clear?

Hope this helps.

Even using Winmail as a search term (to exclude the zillions of references
to non winmail programs even though I went via Winmail's Help menu. I still
get billions. I found what I was looking for. But if I didn't already know
the answer I would have overlooked it. As Help knows the answer but not the
question.

I hope they bring back the good help, When HTML Help was released I couldn't
believe they expected me to convert ONE rtf file into several thousand html
files.
