Thanks Rob,
I decided to bite the bullet & just pay so that everything would work.
It's $12 a month after the first month trial & I can cancel that & uninstall it if I want.
So I downloaded all of Office to get that which includes the latest Outlook as well.
It does work with Win7.

see here:

I use Outlook at work & it's the email client I prefer.
I just couldn't afford to have my emails not working -
not even for one day as they are so important for me right now.

It was quite a job to get it all working - about 4 hours.
There was a bug where I couldn't export one folder from Win Live Mail to the new Outlook but it's not an important one.

Hopefully with updates coming in automatically -
Microsoft will fix that bug one day.

So I now have 2 email accounts working in outlook
& it seems to work OK - sending & receiving emails.
I'll test it out over the next month.

cheers
Allan
