Windows Mail comes bundled with Vista only and is not downloadable as a
stand-alone program.

Hello Jane

You should have a "Windows Mail" shortcut in your Vista Start Menu t
use to open it. If not, it's located at "C:\Program Files\Window
Mail\Winmail.exe" in Vista only

Hope this helps

It is possible but not advisable as it is unsupported.

You need to adjust your PC time & or Time Zone, you are posting in the
future.

Apparently the time in your computer needs fixing.

Jane,

If you have Vista still installed, or can find it on Google (unsafe),
then this will show you how to add Windows Mail to Windows 7 below.

'Windows Mail - Windows 7 Forums'
(http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...dows-mail.html)

However, Windows Mail is not supported in Windows 7 and is not
recommended to use in Windows 7 at all. You would be much better using
Windows Live Mail, or some other email client like Thunderbird instead.

That depends on which version of Windows you have.
As Bruce already told you, Windows Mail only comes with Vista,
although there are hacks available to make it work with Windows 7.
I don't recommend the hacks unless you are fairly computer-savvy
and don't mind messing with the registry.

Microsoft doesn't recommend the hacks necessary to make
Windows Mail work with Windows 7. See my earlier post in this
thread.
