You have to install Windows Live Mail from the internet, if you want a Microsoft newsreader on Win7. It's even slower than ever now, with a really childish interface. Yuck. ss. |

I can't seem to find Windows Mail in Windows 7. I guess it will be replaced by Windows Live Essentials (in this case Windows Live Mail). Alias "Tony Rizzo" wrote in message ... Anyone know T |

WLM works fine in Win7, I'm using it right now.
Agent 5.0 also works, using for news only. Also using Thunderbird 2.0.0.19 for email only. "Felipe Alfaro Solana" wrote in message ... Alias wrote: Steve Cochran wrote: There isn't one.

Does Windows Live Mail support NNTP? Yes, of course it does. It always has done, like Windows Mail and Outlook Express before it. How? You aren't getting confused with Windows Live Hotmail, are you? That used to be called Windows Live Mail, after it was called Hotmail, and Windows Live Mail used to be called Windows Live Mail for Desktop. ss. |
