=== Outlook Express 7.0 ===
Outlook Express 7.0 was seen in pre-release builds of Windows Longhorn (Vista), which would indicate that [[Windows Vista]] was to have Outlook in the [[Windows Vista build 6000.16386|final RTM build]], however, in 2005 Outlook Express 7.0, along with the [[WinFS]] feature heavily needed for it was both scrapped and replaced with [[Windows Mail]], which has a similar layout. You can find Windows Mail in [[Windows 7]] [[Windows 7 Beta|pre-releases]], though in later builds, it was intentionally broken. [[Windows 7]] got [[Windows Live Mail]] instead. Windows Mail should not be confused with the modern Windows Mail app that is present on [[Windows 8]] and later.

As stated above, Outlook 7.0 was scrapped from Windows Vista and replaced with Windows Mail. This was included in many [[Windows 7]] [[Windows 7 Beta|preview builds]], though in later builds, it was intentionally broken. This was replaced in the final RTM build with [[Windows Live Mail]], also downloadable for [[Windows XP]] and later. In [[Windows 8]] and later, Microsoft reused the Windows Mail name for a modern mail app.
