    The Outlook Express that came with earlier versions of Windows has been
    replaced in Vista by Windows Mail.

    You will not find it as Outlook Express. It is now just Mail. It is
    exactly the only redeeming part of Vista. But still has issues...it is in
    fact Outlook express.

    The new version of Outlook Express, the one which comes with Vista,
    has been renamed, and is now called Windows Mail.

    Office is irrelevant. Outlook never came with Office and still
    doesn't.

  5. There is no more Outlook Express for Vista. Download Windows Live Mail. Its
    free, and its better than the Windows Mail that ships with Vista.

    I think you may have misspoke. Outlook is included with all Office 2007
    suites except for Home and Student.

    Yes, of course. Sorry for my typo. What I meant was that Outlook
    Express (the subject of the message) never came with Office and still
    doesn't.

    Yes. And with Office 2000 and 2007.

    Sorry for the typo, and see the acknowledgement of my error I just
    sent in this thread.

    OE was replaced by Windows Mail, it's not included with Vista nor Office.
    Office came with Outlook, not Outlook Express.
    Outlook is a much better/more powerful program than OE, but it's not free.
    To get 'similar' functionality, you can download Windows Live Mail from MS,
    it's free...and it allows you to access Hotmail, which OE won't do real
    soon...

    Windows Mail certainly does support POP3. Go to your ISP's website, user
    forums, or call their tech support to see how to set Windows Mail for POP3.
    Or use a different, better email client such as Thunderbird.

    I think it's rather silly to dump the operating system for this issue, but
    of course this is *your* computer and you can do what you want with it.
    Here is general information about replacing Vista with XP:

    A. On an OEM (HP, Sony, etc.) computer:

    1. Go to the OEM's website and look for XP drivers for your specific model
    computer. If there are no XP drivers, then you can't install XP. End of
    story. If there are drivers, download them and store on a CD-R or USB
    thumbdrive; you'll need them after you install XP.

    2. Check with the OEM - either from their tech support website or by calling
    them - to see if you will void your warranty if you do this. If you will
    void the warranty, you make the decision.

    3. If the OEM does support XP on the machine, call them and see if you can
    have downgrade rights and have them send you an XP restore disk. This will
    be far the easiest and best way of getting XP on the machine.

    4. If XP is supported on the machine but the OEM doesn't have an XP restore
    disk for you, understand that you'll need to purchase a retail copy of XP
    from your favorite online or brick/mortar store.

    5. Also understand that you will need to do a clean install of XP so if you
    have any data you want, back it up first.

    6. If none of the above is applicable to you because you can't run XP on
    that machine (see Item #1 above), return the computer and purchase one
    running XP instead.

    B. On a generic/home-built computer (from non-OEM company) - You will need
    drivers for all your hardware. See the second link below for more details:

    - Clean Install How-To
    - What
    you will need on-hand

    Sorry, that's not at all correct. It *does* support POP3. Check with
    your ISP for the settings necessary.
