Hi, I recently bought a new HP PC (64bit) with W-7. It came with a
really
bad email software called WindowsLiveMail that will not work for me.
There
is no way to set a rule to keep large files from downloading as in
WindowsMail. I don't have unlimited Internet downloads. I can't find
Send
& Recieve either. I can't find any way to show the size of downloaded
mail.
I tried Thunderbird and don't care for it at all. How can I get a copy
of
WindowsMail or even OutlookExpress on W-7? I don't or want an email
program
that has all the bells and whistles I don't need or care about.

Is there some way I can get WindowsMail to work on W-7?

I had this sort of trouble when I upgraded from
XP. I finally bit the bullet and bought
Outlook10 and have not regretted it.

Can I try before I buy? A trial period perhaps? Is it like WindowsMail
on Vista?


You can download a trial here.

FYI: Outlook does not do news.


When I got this Win7 machine, I did the WinMail hack and have it for news
ever since. (Check my message headers). I used WLMail 2009 for about a
month and switched to TB. TB is a bit different than OE, but it's got some
great free add-ons. Like "mail merge" for one.
