Ok, after all that, click on Windows Live Mail icon on the Desktop. You will see that it says importing accounts from Outlook Express on XP or Windows Mail on Vista. You will then see the following screen.

You should see that the accounts have been copied from the old email program and also that they are arranged in order of account and separated.

You will see the RSS feed icon that is at the top of this blog page.

If you click on this icon on Windows Live Mail you will see your feeds automatically displayed. You will see in the following screen that I have added my blog feed to this.

If you now click on the Update Feeds menu bar at the top, it will download all your feeds for you to read. See what I have done on mine, see screen below.

And that is all you have to do. I stated at the beginning that you might want to print this off to better understand what to do, I think it would be a good idea.

Oh, by the way, at the bottom of these blogs there is a survey of mine, you can take it if you wish, it would be nice to find out what you think.

See you on the flip side ...................................
