Hey, I haven't heard anything about the demise of Outlook Express. So, what are the options and where from?

Hi, Windows Live mail is perfectly accessible. I'm using it with Jaws
right now. It does take a bit of getting used to, and I don't like
the Jaws scripts as I have said many times. If you're a Jaws user,
what I would do is copy all your outlook express and Windows Live
Mail scripts to an alternative folder, then rename your
wlmaill.outlook express JSS file to to the current name of your
windows live mail one, thus using the Outlook Express scripts
instead. These automatically read messages unlike the default
scripts, and work better with the various pains. Also worth going
through all the view settings and putting them to your liking.

Cheers

Subject: [access-uk] Windows live mail question

Hi all,

Sorry if this was discussed before but I was off the list for a
couple of months...

I've just downloaded Windows Live Mail, the new email client that is
replacing Outlook Express, but I find it completely inaccessible. Am I
correct in this? Microsoft says that from June 30 OE will not work...
so if this new client isn't useable, what alternatives do we have? I
personally don't find Outlook as accessible and easy to use as
Outlook Express.

Any advice is very much appreciated.

Amro
