'''Outlook Express''' (formerly Microsoft Internet Mail and News) was an E-mail program bundled with [[Microsoft Windows]] starting with [[Windows 98]]. You could download it onto machines running Windows 3.x, [[Windows 95]], Windows NT 3.51, and Windows NT 4.0. The product was included on Windows 98 up to Longhorn before being discontinued in favor of Windows Mail found in RTM [[Windows Vista]] and in some betas of [[Windows 7]] (though it was purposely broke in later builds) before being reintroduced in Metro language form in [[Windows 8]] and [[Windows 10|10]]. Many people often confuse this with Microsoft Outlook, bundled with Microsoft Office and hence think Outlook Express is a stripped down version of Microsoft Outlook, however that is not the case as the programs don't share a common code base.
