I agree. I just had Office 2007 installed. Outlook Express is there, and it 
runs, but the spell-checker default dictionary is set to French and there is no 
longer any way to change it. Okay if you're writing in French, but not very 
useful for English. 

I found information on the web from Microsoft that the Outlook Express spelling 
language settings are no longer compatible with the global language settings 
made to MS-Office, so it is yet another indication of no more support for OE.

I'll have to resort to using MS-Outlook instead.

  hi,
  why must do all this trouble? it is a fake or not, sooner or later we also 
have to stop using outlook express, so why not start to learn a new email 
client?

  Hello Catherine. The best thing to collect more information is you send us 
here in this list the message's headers.
  At this purpose, do the following:

  1. browse your Outlook Express inbox folder and reach the message you 
received by Microsoft.
  2. don't press Enter, but alt-enter, to view its properties.
  3. press control-tab to read the Details page.
  4. now, activate the virtual viewer by pressing control-insert-w.
  5. go at the top of that window typing control-home.
  6. type shift-control-end to select the whole text area, then press control-c 
to copy the text.
  7. press esc to close the virtual viewer, then create a new message pressing 
control-n.
  8. in the "To:" file,d put our list's address, then in the body paste with 
control-v the previously copied text.

  Having the headers I'll be more able to try to know if it was spam or a true 
communication.

  Bye

  Stefano
