....yet Windows EMail says it has imported all of my old "identities."

It refuses to allow me to log into my 'old' webmail from my ISP.

Don't know what to do.

TIA,

Jack
 
Thanks, but this is the new "Vista" era.

IE is no longer an option on this (Vista Ultimate) laptop. I'm still able
to use it on my 'old' but lovingly and $$$$ restored [hard drive crash
enabled me to double everything for under $500]. I DID restore it because
that Toshiba TotL Satellite laptop has a wireless keyboard and mouse built in.
 
I don't know what you mean by 'IE is no longer an option".
Vista comes with IE7.

IE = Internet Explorer, it comes with Vista

Or do you mean Outlook Express?

Windows Mail replaces OE, but doesn't access web mail (http) email accounts.
Windows Mail also does not use Identities.

For reasons related to "security," the Windows Mail team elected to remove
the Identities feature from Windows Mail that had been present in Outlook
Express, suggesting that you create new user accounts for that purpose. If
you still prefer to try using the Identity feature, Steve Cochran has a
utility that might interest you:

However, access to all HTTP mail is not available in Windows Mail, although
it will be available in Windows Live Mail, which is a desktop application
you should be able to download in a few weeks that will take the place of
Windows Mail if you prefer and it will provide web access to HTTP mail
accounts.
