To those millions the Outlook Express was a superstar, an extremely simple, versatile, adjustable, convenient and user friendly email client with tons of features. Oh dear God, please make Microsoft come to its senses and enable or add Outlook Express to Windows 8.
Oh dear God, please make Microsoft realize that Outlook Express has been perfectly serving a niche consisted of millions of loyal users. Please make Microsoft understand that those users are suffering now wasting millions of hours trying in vain to find a replacement. Oh dear God, please make Microsoft to at least offer a paid version of Outlook Express for Windows 8. It simply will not happen. Outlook express has worked well for years now with no problems, why should someone like microsoft dictate to all the older users that they have to change.
It makes no sence. Outlook was a program that was easy to use. I used it in busness as well as for home and even sending large files all with no problems. Just as an insight, I grew up with DOS and windows 3. Now with a computer running 8. It alsmost makes me think I should take the computer back to the supplier and get a raincoat, sorry mac.
Regards Peter. They simply stopped supporting it and have moved on to offering other free solutions that seem to work better for the majority of users and most of all can work better on more powerful machines. And with cars, third party manufacturers often take up the slack as long as there is money to be made. OE eased me gently into receiving emails from my ISP.
I see OE still offered free by third parties but no one seems to be talking about or reviewing them. One is Soft32, another is Portable Outlook Express. How do I take the information from my XP machine and get it into outlook. Not everyone is pc savvy. And coming from XP puts me waaay behind. Would be great to have the rest of the instructions.
Google it? I have been using Outlook Express for around 25 years. The last version OE6 is bug free. That is typical of all software. New software has bugs which get repaired and old software has no more bugs. Nobody is making viruses for old unpopular software. The loopholes have been filled and finding new loopholes in old software would be very very time consuming for little reward. I have been using this for three years and was very satisfied by the software solution. The only problem was with the guy at the keyboard.
Reason 1 : I have several internet adresses and all the emails arrive in the same INBOX, where i can sort them for each of my email addresses, and move them where i want.
Reason 3 : I have approximately address books. Not one, not two, but really around address books with over 30 adresses, several personns have similar names. The best way for me not to mix up the names is to keep them in separate address books.
Reason 4 : I can set up as many. I can sort messages received and sent as i like. The only problem is to keep watch of the file size. Microsoft says the limit is 2GB. To be on the safe side if you have a few hundred messages in a folder be sure to keep well below 2 GB.
Dont accept large attached audio files, Even less large video attached files. NO money involved just newsletters. While we are on the subject of Outlook Express. Can someone tell me what file name the address book is stored in? Also, how would I export the address book into Xfinity e-mail program. Thank you. Comments violating those rules will be removed.
