Thanks a lot for the info!
Great to know where I can find you!
Still working with WinMail(under Vista as well as under Win7) this for
sure is most valuable.

Thanks for the pointer!

That's a really drawback!
As a hard-core NNTP fanatic I guess that I will hardly go there too
often.

The way Hotmai users normally behave, this does not sound too promising
;-) :-)

Thanks again
and kindest regards

Rainald

I post pretty much across the board in those forums. I don't cover WLM.

I don't like that at all and threw it off the machine after testing.

This is my reaction to it: www.oehelp.com/OEnWin7.aspx

I'm posting from XP Mode now.

I know ;-) ;-)

I'm still using WinMail - under Vista as well as under Win7.

Rainald
P.S. As on the quoted page you say that the XP-mode would require Win7
Pro and above:
It works pretty fine with the Home-versions too. Only drawback: One
needs XP SP3 (valid licence).
But one can get that pretty cheap in eBay. So the Win7 version nit
really is an obstacle.

The page actually shows a screenshot of a virtual XP window that is NOT XP
Mode, so I already discuss the use in the "lower" versions of Win7. XP Mode
requires Pro or higher, but one can use a valid XP virtual machine, or even
clone their old machines using Disk2VHD.
