Where to view mail accounts details

[jsmith]

Friend just got Windows 7 and still unfamiliar...I'm trying to assist but
only have XP.
Can someone advise..
1. How does he find the list of e-mails accounts he has. (in XP its
Tools/Accounts/Mail)?
2. How does he arrange to create a folder called, say, From ABD, and then
direct incoming e's from ABD to that folder?
Thanks, John

As Windows 7 does NOT come with any email client, you will have to ask
your friend what email client he has downloaded and installed for anyone
to answer.

Then it's the same AFAIK - Tools-Mail Accounts. (Or maybe
Tools-Options-Mail accounts) Has he not just LOOKED?

Again setting up a rule is the same. Tools-Message Rules (AFAIK).
All fairly easy to see and visible.

At the top right-hand side of the screen there is a drop-down box called 'Menus'.
Select 'Show menu bar'.
The Tools are there.

If the menu bar is not showing, look at the top right and there is an icon
like a piece of paper with a pen on it. Click on that and select Show menu
bar. Pressing Alt-M will also show the drop-down menu. Then he can go in and
check his accounts, very similar to Outlook Express.
Rules are set up the same way as OE, too (or at least similar enough to call
it the same way).

IDIOT.

Yes - we try to help people who have an intricate problem - but why the
f*ck should we help people who don't even try to help themselves?

To save the internet for us all! If the newbies don't get help, they'll
be running insecure systems with all sorts of bots and crap on open home
wireless networks. What percent of email is spam coming out of botnets?
Doesn't every DoS attack hurt everyone who needs to visit that site?

"Help if you want to, move along if you don't" is my motto.

I agree my post was a bit rash, but yesterday was a day full of morons.

Every day is full of morons. Some days you notice them more. Then, once
you're looking for them, you find you're ass-deep.
