David, sorry, I realized after I reread my response that the program was windows mail as it was before the latest windows live mail product which I tried using when I switched to windows 7 a year ago. Yes, please send any directions as I have two machines I want to switch from outlook 2003 to windows mail. jrvaughn44@xxxxxxxxxxx thank you.

I could send to you if you wish. ----- Original Message ----- From: john R. <mailto:jrvaughn44@xxxxxxxxxxx> Vaughn To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, January 17, 2011 11:01 AM Subject: RE: Outlook 2003: problem with outgoing mails David, Where do you find the documentation for installation of this outlook express program and which registry items to change or modify? thank you.

Its name is windows life mail. Now, I know that outlook 2007 and 2010 does work with windows 7. Maybe you should upgrade. From: Hamid Hamraz <mailto:hhamraz@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 17, 2011 7:28 AM To: jfw list <mailto:jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Outlook 2003: problem with outgoing mails Dear all, I am using windows XP SP3 and outlook 2003. I have configured my Gmail account exactly as stated in Gmail help. I receive the incoming mails, but I can not send anything, without any kind of error message! Any suggestions? (I have imported the settings from OE, and then modified it to the ones in gmail help.) I really prefer to use OE, but I am switching to windows 7 soon. So I am looking for a well accessible counterpart for OE. Can OE be installed on windows 7, instead of windows mail? Any suggestions/comments is greatly appreciated. Cheers! Hamid Yadiel J.
