It's the old story - If It Ain't Broke Don't Fix It.
My New Zealand ISP had a perfectly useable e-mail system that worked, and I could download from their Server to Outlook Express easily, then they got mixed up with something called Yahoo ! Bubble - whatever that meant - and the whole thing went to Hell in a Handcart. Subsequently Outlook Express morphed into what is now Windows Live Mail.
Live ? more like deceased, there was nothing wrong with O.E.
I've just had to buy a new Laptop, fitted with Windows 8 !! Fortunately I was also given a list of Hotkeys, use Windows 'Flag' button plus the D button to get immediately back to the desktop and forget all those fancy Metro Tiles Grrrr !! Bit like going back to the original MsDos of yesteryear, and fortunately I still had an old Word '97 disc, so installed Word, Excel and Powerpoint programmes that I love and understand.
Happiness is not having to learn new tricks every day.
