    Sorry - it don't exist.
    Windows Mail is the replacement.
    Windows Mail has worked for me in many ways that OE did not.

    Dear Mr. Smartguys;
    I have Outlook Express on my desktop and got this lap top with Vista, yes I
    know it has the fancy dancey Windows mail on it.
    When I receive my mail on the laptop, I can't look at it again when I get to
    my desktop.
    Suggestions?
    I need to look at the e-mails on my desktop when I get to it as I need to
    print some of the business correspondence.
    With Kind Regards

    Ignore what Dave says, it won't work. You need to set the email account
    to keep a copy on the server. That will not let you see emails you have
    sent however. The best answer is to see if your ISP offers IMAP mail
    accounts..

    It's not there, and you won't be able to find it.

    In Vista, Windows Mail replaced Outlook Express. Office has never
    included Outlook Express, but most editions do include Outlook, which is
    a very different kettle of fish.

    I recently purchased a new HP computer that had Vista as an operating system.
    The next day I was on this site and discovered Vista doesn't have Outlook
    Express. I immediately returned the unopen box. Does anyone know if you can
    purchase Outlook Express separately and install it on a Vista computer.
    Better yet, where can I buy Windows XP in a box, and can XP be installed over
    a Vista operating system? I do not want a Vista operating system. My son
    has it on his lap top and all he does is have trouble.

    Try to find a computer that already has XP installed. It is unlikely
    at this point that any Vista computer will have XP drivers available
    for it, so installing XP on such a computer will result in disaster.

    Eh? What a DORK! You return an unused computer purely because it doesn't
    have Outhouse Express?
    I've heard it all now!
    There are quite a few other free email clients that you could have tried
    instead.....

    No, Outhouse Distress is discontinued with XP. It's simply not
    available for Vista. The closest (but not the best) newsreader to OE,
    but the one I like the best is Thunderbird.

    To the OP: Vista comes with Windows Mail, which is very similar to OE.

    I prefer T-bird myself. MS's mail solutions don't meet my needs.
