Friend bought a laptop with Windows Vista-Ugh, not even remotely more navigable than XP.<br />
<br />
In any event, if one installs Outlook 2003 it appears there is no MAIL icon in control panel to set up profiles so that Outlook asks what profile to use.<br />
<br />
Any ideas??<br />
<br />
I set up 2 email accounts in Outlook but no way I see to switch between them or have it prompt you.<br />
<br />
Thanks for any help. I rather stick with Outlook but if we must use Thunderbird or something so be it.<br />
<br />
I d not think Outlook Express comes with Vista (not in front of their PC right now).<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
Peter

The Microsoft Legacy Operating System topic includes legacy versions of Microsoft operating systems prior to Windows 2000: All versions of MS-DOS and other versions developed for specific manufacturers and Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions, and Windows Mobile.

Microsoft Legacy OS

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
