Can I install Outlook Express on a Vista system instead of Windows Mail?

No. Windows Mail is the replacement for OE.
If you don't like WM, you might try the newer Windows Live Mail.
 
Dave,
I like the Windows mail and have imported all my old settings and addresses
from Outlook Express. My problem is that we are still using the older
computer, and the new one, networked. Now all my email goes into the old OE
account, but doesn't show up in the new WM account. Any ideas?

If both computers are checking the same email account, whichever
one completes its email download first will make those emails
unavailable to the second PC. To fix that problem, go to Tools,
Accounts, select your mail account, Properties, Advanced,
enable "Leave a copy of messages on server." Depending on how
much server space your ISP allows, you may want to select one or
both of the two associated 'remove' options.

Repeat the above on the second computer.
