Actually it works quite well on Windows 10 V1607 using Jaws 18 and accessing ATT email addresses. I have had no issues in the nearly 48 hours I've been using it. In fact this entire series of emails has been sent and received using it.

It looks just like I remember it on XP and I have no problems what so ever with it and Jaws.

I wouldn't bother with it. -------- Original Message -------- From: Carol Smith via Groups.Io [mailto:carollablady=aol.com@groups.io] Sent: Friday, May 26, 2017 10:52 AM EST To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: Outlook Express Thank you. I am getting enough traffice right now that this would be a good time to test it. I will put this email account on it and see how it goes.

I thought it was not supposed to, so that is why I don't have it. By the time they got most of the bugs out of WLM, I had already gotten used to Thunderbird. Also, how does Windows Mail work, if it does at all, on Windows 7? Thankd Carol On 5/26/2017 9:22 AM, Gene Stevens wrote: Found something interesting last night. I found a copy of Outlook Express 6 that seems to be running quit well on windows 10 V1607. As I'm not a high Email user and I don't much like the Mail App I thought I'd give it a shot since there seem to be issues with Thunderbird. So if some of you are old enough to remember OE and don't like the offerings of today perhaps this is a good solution for you.
