You can't actually unsubscribe from Live.com - all you can do is uninstall the thing and stop using it. Eventually the account will be put into suspension for non-use and ultimately deleted. Also when you install Windows Live it brings in all the other 'Windows Live' bits such as the photo gallery and makes them the default. You can go into [ Start / Control / Uninstall a Program ] and remove Windows Live which will allow you to select which bits you want to get rid of ( or all of it !! ). As for an e-mail client - try Thunderbird ( www.thunderbird.com ) -- Best regards, Barry mailto:[email protected] MicroSoft Free Zone running Ubuntu 10.04 'Lucid' 64bit

Barry, again, many, many thanks. We did install Windows live email but no request for the feeds, so am going to do as you instruct. We had used Thunderbird quite successfully on XP, but installing it on Windows 7 presents a major problem in that email cannot be sent out. Email arrives, but will not go out. With our limited knowledge we tried everything recommended on the Thunderbird/windows 7 installation pages but it simply would not send emails for us so reluctantly we tried Live.com. Again, many thanks.
