Vista has Windows Mail (which is *different* to Windows Live Mail)
instead of OE
Windows Mail is very much the same as OE except that you cannot set

one identity but for another identity you need to set up different
user login in Windows itself.
You can get Windows Live Mail which works in both XP and Vista but I
hate that :-(
