Default Windows mail and MSN mail account....

Hi,

I am using RC2 and would like to set up Windows Mail to check my MSN mail
account and AOL account, but come up with the Explorer screen saying that I
can not set up account...anybody have an idea on how it is done,or a work
around. I used Desktop Live Beta for mail, but it had a problem with mailing
a letter that just could not seem to be sent, and after reinstalling it, the
same problem...the letter just seems to cause the program to hang...how can I
delete the letter? I can not locate it any where....any help would be great!

You will have to install Windows Office Outlook and purchase MSN
Premium to be able to use the Outlook Connector to access your MSN
account. Whether it is possible to access AOL mail using a MSN
Premium account I don't know. Why not use AOL for Vista to access
your AOL account?

Microsoft no longer supports web-based email of any kind in any of its
stand-alone clients (other than MSN Premium or Microsoft Office
Outlook using the Outlook Connector provided with MSN Premium).
