IE7 is a standalone package (presently in beta2) and does not include any
update to Outlook Express, which is no longer considered to be a part of
Internet Explorer. It's reached the end of its road and will not be updated
any more.

Windows Mail Desktop will be a download available from Microsoft for earlier
operating systems. It will be primarily supported by advertisements which
will allow it to be maintained and updated more frequently than has been the
practice for Outlook Express. At least, that is the hope of those who plan
these things at MS.

Is IE 7 part of that package? Will one have to change OSs to use Windows
Mail?

Thanks.
