vista probs outlook express
 
there seems to be a new version of it on my new machine, totally hate its setup, i think it might be part of a 60 day trial on office or something, but i cant see any normal outlook express on there, can i make it back to like it was on xp??? doesnt seem to be looking for new emails either and getr a error most times when i clikc the send/receive bit

its spost to be a good machine but finding it hard adjusting

Hello

You can't use Outlook Express in Vista. You have to import your messages to "Windows Mail". The rest of the set-up is similiar: You have a wizard to enter POP3/SMTP details, username etc..

bummer you cant even set up hotmail accounts with vista so thats me screwed then, ive got 3 hotmail accounts i need to link together

You can't use Outlook (not Express) properly either...due to a flaw in security, Outlook and Vista have a deliberate compatibility issue and passwords won't get stored and thus each time you open Outlook you get prompted for them again...which is a bugger if like me you have 6 pop accounts...
