No Outlook after OS Re-Install

[tawnia]

Hi, I'm hoping the answer will be go here, re-download, no charge, no problem...

Last week, Dell sent a tech out to reinstall my motherboard and fan on my Inspiron 1525 with Vista Home Premium. I'm still getting things set up and noticed tonight that I no longer have Outlook 2007. I looked in All Programs and any sub menu where it might be hiding. I tried setting up Windows mail but don't know what the servers are for yahoo that it prompts you for during set up. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Hello Tawnia,

Welcome to Vista Forums.

Sorry, WMail won't work with web based email unless it is the paid service. More info here: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/62560-windows-mail-problems.html

You could download Live mail. This will work with web mail. There is a link in Problem one/Fourth.

Hope this helps.

You could try setting up Windows Mail with the following settings:

Outgoing Server (SMTP) smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk (or .com)
Incoming Server (POP3) pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk (or .com)

Use your email address & password as normal & make sure your set for 'outgoing authentication'

I'm not 100% sure as i've not used Windows Mail in a while but it might be worth a try.

Hope this helps
