• Cannot open emails from Outlook Express on Windows 7

  Original title: Outlook express on exploere8

  I just bought a new computer which has windows 7 and explorer 8 is installed, my old computor was an outlook express program that has lots of emails stored in it. I don't seem to be able to open these emails outlook express doesn't automatically come with explorer8?

  Outlook Express is an e-mail Client program.  Internet Explorer is a web browser.  They are completely different animals.

  Windows 7 computers lack any e-mail client program (unless the manufacturer of the computer or the seller has installed a). Therefore, you will need to download and install your own choice email client.

  Microsoft to promote Windows Live Mail, the free successor to Outlook Express.  You can download the program ofhttp://download.live.com.   WLMail belongs to the series of programs, Windows Live, which includes Windows Live Messenger, etc.. However, you just install the items you need.

  At present, there are two versions of WLMail available for download.  The latest stable version of the suite of programs live was "Wave 3"(version number 14.0.8117.0416).  However, you also have the option to install the version 'Wave 4' of the various programs.  I have no experience of the Wave 4 programs (which are beta (or test) releases), so cannot advise.

  Once you have installed WLMail, you will need to copy the messages from your old computer to Win XP files in a directory on your new Windows 7 computer.  Then, you will be able to open WLMail and click on file / import - import messages and other data.  With the version of Wave 3, the menu bar (which provides the file / edit / view / go / tools / Actions & help commands) is hidden by default.  To display the menu bar on an ad hoc basis, press Ctrl. To display the menu bar, click Alt and M together. Then, press M (or select "Show menu bar").

  You will find further instructions to the http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/importing-your-e-mail-contacts-and-calendar-into-windows-live-mail. However, a Google search led me to www.pcdon.com/080113OutlookExpress-WindowsLiveMail.html, which you can find easier to understand.

• How to open emails from Outlook Express on Windows 7?

  Burning of emails on CD using my old Windows XP computer. Outlook Express. These had. EML file extension. Now using "Windows Live mail" for email. I can open any email received with. EML extension, but can't open the emails on the disk. EML extension.

  Completely stumped!

  Hi Ron Palmer,

  First I have to say that this has nothing to do with Toshiba, it s related to Microsoft. In addition, I recommend an IMAP e-mail account, where e-mails will be stored on the server too.

  In any case, a friend of me has had the same problem and it could solve it:

  1. go to my computer > click on the C: drive > programs x 86 > Windows live > Mail
  In this folder, open wlmail.exe.
  After this move should open your emails with the .eml attachment.

  Good luck!

• When I'm in Firefox how can I access Thunderbird. Explorer has a direct link to Outlook Express.;

  See above

  I guess the assumption is that if you click on a mailto link in the browser, the main objective is to compose and send an email, but after the opening of the entry window, you can open the main program of tools/Mail & Newsgroups or Ctrl-1.
