Upgraded to Vista Home Premium - what an ordeal!. My OE is gone, Windows
mail can't seem to import my 'identity' (or any others). I now have no
e-mail client. How can I get to me inbox, adresses and stored mail? Help
available seems useless and juts states the obvious. What do I do now?

2 month old Dell XPS 710
QX6700 quad
4 GB Ram
1 TB Sata Drive
 
Well, there are plenty of things you could do. WinMail doesn't seem
to attract the user fondness that OE had. You have no shortage of
RAM or disk space. You could run an XP virtual machine in Vista.
The virtualization software is free - you'd need an XP install CD, though.
Either doing that or dual-booting XP means restoring OE's data.
Do you have a backup? http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/backup/clone.htm

If you want to stick with WinMail for now, rather than running two Windows,
both Vista & XP, in order to keep Outlook Express, then look here:

Fedora 7 has a deadly chess program - superior to Chess Titans.
Running OE on Linux would not be legal, though. Pick the middle way.
