Microsoft to kick Vista's e-mail app to the curb | InfoWorld | News | 2007-05-08 | By Gregg Keizer, Computerworld

The end of the road for Outlook Express... 

Windows Live Mail will replace Outlook Express on Windows XP and Windows Mail on Vista in "the coming weeks," said Microsoft. The program, which will handle POP, IMAP, and Windows Live Hotmail accounts, was characterized as a faster, more robust version of Windows Live Mail desktop beta, which has been in testing for Windows XP. The beta will be retired.

According to a Windows Live Mail blog, the new client will sport features from Outlook Express, Windows Mail, and the Windows Live Mail desktop beta.
