Move Over Express, Make Way For Windows Live Mail

Are you still using Microsoft Outlook Express? Well it is high time that you switched to a much faster and easier mail option. Outlook Express was the predecessor to the Windows Mail, which later morphed into the Windows Live Mail. Outlook Express was a great news and email client, available for Internet explorer versions 4 to 6. It is also available on the Windows 98, all through to Windows Server 2003. However, this client is very old, and Microsoft has developed new email and news clients that are a lot faster, simpler to use, and has multiple features for customizing your account. You can add multiple accounts without having to switch identities on Windows mail.
Also known as Windows Live Hotmail, it is one of the best email clients available. It is based on a similar architecture to Express, but is more advanced and has many features, which are unavailable in Express. So if you want to migrate to the latest email client, here is how.

Instructions:

• Check if your system requirement matches those required for Windows Live Mail. The operating system on your computer should be at least the Windows XP SP2 or higher; even Vista should just as well. This also requires a decent internet connection and a good browser like Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.
• Now download the application program. Go to the Windows Live Mail site, and download this program free of cost. Install the program following the installation wizard and prompts. The wizard is a tool that guides you through a systematic installation of the application. Wait until the installation process is complete and launch the application.
• Create a new email account. Start the process by selecting the Add An Email Account option present in the home screen of the program. Select a username, email address and a password to secure your account. Add any additional information that is asked to complete your user profile..
• It is mandatory that you be aware of your mail server settings before you begin. There are two servers’ i.e. an incoming mail server referred to as POP3 and an outgoing mail server commonly called STMP. Click on the box that asks if your server requires authentication, and finish with the wizard.
• You have successfully installed and configured Windows Live Mail.
