Looks like I've opened a can of worms here ... I have purchased a

if it will run in 7 ...

Be forewarned the Outlook Express never had anything to do with
Outlook. Personally, I use Thunderbird on both my Linux and Windows
boxes.

I know , but it did include an email client . We use Tbird on the
wife's laptop because Windows Mail sucks a big green one . My new
desktop will too when it's finished .

Run Tbird that is , not suck a big grteen one .
I run Microsoftoffice Outlook 2007. Seems to be the sweet spot -
much better than XP/03 and not as complex/fancy as 13 and above.
I use Agent as a newsreader
