[Magdalen] email transfer help/advice

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Chad, I am in Windows live mail which is what I ended up in 7 years ago with 
Windows 7.

I understand that WLM does not migrate to Outlook very well, which I was 
anticipating buying, but I've been encouraged NOT to do that.

I didn't want to get involved in Microsoft Mail (has a different name).
