Butch, some people use Microsoft Outlook which I believe is actually part of 
the MS Word package rather than Windows 7, but Windows Live Mail is the 
email client that is part of Windows 7.  Outlook is different from Outlook 
Express, but it can work in 7.  I don't know much about Windows Live Mail.
