Never looked to see what came with W8. Or maybe I did and blocked it from memory. I bought Office 2013 and use WOutlook.

I don't think that is possible as seen here [^].

As much feature churn as the metro apps have seen, I wouldn't regard anything from almost 2 years ago as a definitive answer about the current status. OTOH I don't use it, so have no idea if they've changed their mindfinally GOTTEN around to adding the feature.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Griff,
I'm pretty sure that XP was the last Outlook Express version (I've certainly seen Vista with Windows Mail.)
I did a quick search and found this clickety[^] I have no idea if it works!
It might be time for her to find an alternative. I love Windows 8, but I'm disappointed with Office 2013 on it, but that's what I use.
Bonne chance mon ami!

I think you're right: I have Office 2010 on my Win7 and it includes Outlook - and I seem to recall that one of the reasons I got it was the absence of Outlook Express.
Maybe I'll move her to Thunderbird...

That's a $99 product.

Clearly it's a Friday or something. I posted a bug in a solution (that I spotted and fixed) on QA today.
Maybe I should just go home and have a nap! 
Sorry Griff.

Is this the Metro mail app; or the desktop client?
Outlook Express was rebadged to Windows Mail, and then to Windows Live Mail. The latter is a standalone download and AFAIK should work on Windows 8. IF the metro version isn't cutting it, it might be worth switching to the desktop client instead. Aside from having a ribbon I think it's mostly the same thing as OE was on XP and prior, so there shouldn't need to be much retraining and I'd assume it would have all the features of the old client as well.

Ah! Interesting - and worth a try.
I'll see if I can find the D/L...

Everything's probably still there, but they've renamed it, tied it up with ribbons, and buried it under a pile of baby blocks, so don't expect to find it for at least a few months -- and when you do find it, write down each step that you took to get to it, or you'll never find it again.
I used to complain if someone moved or renamed a menu item, but that was sublime compared to the ridiculousness we've been subjected to in the past few years.

I use Thunderbird on Windows 8 (and Windows 7, etc). I didn't see any reason to use their full screen app store mail app. Just didn't have any appeal to me whatsoever and I already had an Email client. That would stink to be on Outlook Express and not have it available though. I'd say find another Email client you like and you can use it across OS/machines.

OG, does this[^] link help?

Regrettably not - it looks like the version in Win8 has been completely lobotomised, and the "junk mail" selection doesn't allow access to the blocked senders list. In fact, it seems there is no blocked senders list in the stupid app!

What will you do if you are the only one who come office today in your team ? Will you work or will you just sit simply? I am tired of being simple. All members went to their home town to celebrate Diwali

I think OP wanted to know what you would do differently.

It would be different as I'd have nobody to stare at intently whilst doing it.

Work as expected, or just go out and celebrate Diwali like there is no tomorrow.
