I recently helped an older (than me ...) couple set up their new computer

have no experience with the new comps , I'm a steadfast XP user .
I did a little bit of research today , and it looks like they need an app
for that ... is this how the new ones work ? I know how to set up the server
settings , user stuff and all that , but had no luck at all trying to help
them find the email client (over the phone) that I thought should be there -
every OS I'm familiar with has one built in (or included) with the OS .
I need some help here ...

There is a mail app on the modern UI interface, but it really sucks.
Download a copy of Thunderbird for them, and call it a day.
