Several have wondered if there is anyway to use OE (or WinMail in Vista) in Windows 7.

This page addresses some of the potential means to do so:

Thanks very much for this link.

Given all the issues I am wondering if a transfer to Outlook isn't a better
option, but when I asked outright in the Windows 7 OE alternative Bruce
Hagen indicated Thunderbird as his preferred 'other' client, after OE. (I
have Outlook 2000 and 2010.)

I think I have to start experimenting while I still can (while in XP).

My worry is that if I stay with OE (in Win 7 XP mode) I am only delaying the
inevitable. But I am also worrying about transferring my bold headings and
red flags...

Sigh.

YES!!
MS is killing _*ALL*_ NGs in favour of the "Forums". {siiigh}

The Germman NGs are mostly dead meanwhile.
The same will happen to this group sooner or later. :-(

Microsoft cannot kill the group, we are invincible. D

They can, however, stop hosting them on their servers.

Which means that then they are brain dead.
Even if they were mirrored by other providers which do not shut down
their servers there is no use at all to further use these dead groups
for further discussions.

A majority of the German MS-groups has been shut down already. So I'm
experienced with what happens when MS pills the plug :-(

This group will soon be dead anyway.
