    Its quite a complex thing to do it took me about an hour of trail and error but got there in the end. YOu could always try this http://get.live.com/betas/maildesktop_betas its like windows mail except it will handle all your email accounts and its easy to set up ;)
    Don't listen to the bad things about Vista its the best :beer:

    Just because it's free don't mean it's good :rolleyes:

    Ditch Norton Now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wall:

    Just Because you read it some where don't mean it's right ;)
