Re: Outlook 2003: problem with outgoing mails

I have always been able to read email with JFW and Outlook Express in the way I 
like best.  I filter messages from each list into its appropriate folder and 
then start reading at the first unread message.  If the message is worth 
saving, I move it to another folder for safe keeping; if not, I delete it, and 
the next message starts speaking automatically.  I normally go all the way 
through the unread messages without returning to the message list, unless I 
need to move a message to a folder for saving.  With the speech set as high as 
I can understand it, I can get through a lot of email in a hurry.  It's also 
nice to see how many messages are being downloaded in a session, how many 
unread messages are in a folder and to be able to go to a folder with 
first-letter navigation, all of which I can do with Outlook Express.

I hope that at least one of the email program possibilities will let me 
continue most of these practices.

  Well, I am a proud owner of windows life mail and I must say, I found it 
easier to work with than outlook express ever was. Don't take my word for it. 
Mess around with it a bit. You will get the hang of it very fast. Now, one 
complain I have is that I can't use first letter navigation. A shame really.

  David,
  Following your instructions, I found Windows Mail on my Windows 7 Home 
Premium system.  Before going to the trouble of trying to get it to work, 
however, I would like to know how well it works with JFW 12.  I don't see it in 
the Supported Programs list.  I do see Windows Live Mail listed, but don't 
really know how well it works either.  I know that there are third-party 
scripts for Thunderbird, but haven't heard many comments about them on this 
list.

  While I am deciding which email program to try on Windows 7, I am still using 
my old faithful Outlook Express on my XP system.

  Any comments on the email programs I've mentioned are welcome.  I am using 
JFW 12 Build 522.

    Hello John;

    first, the registry tweak is for windows mail, which is very similar to OE.

    to find windows mail on a windows 7 machine,

    do the following.

    1, computer/hard drive "c",

    P=programs,

    now press the letter "w" until you hear windows mail,

    there is the folder.

    as for where you can find the documentation?

    I could send to you if you wish.

      David, Where do you find the documentation for installation of this 
outlook express program and which registry items to change or modify?
      thank you.
      John

      Hello there;

      well, just so you no,

      with a couple registry tweaks, you can use windows mail, which is a very 
similar to OE.

      in fact,

      if you go to,

      computer, your c drive,
      then programs,
      then press the letter "p" a few times, you will hear/see,
      windows mail.

      as I indicated, with a few registry tweaks, you can get this email client 
working on the machine.

      have a good day.

        I don't know about OE, but there is no windows mail on win7. Its name 
is windows life mail. Now, I know that outlook 2007 and 2010 does work with 
windows 7. Maybe you should upgrade.

        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
