[Trainer-Talk] Windows 8.1 mail app question

[Jim Portillo]

Thank you very much for the information. That is very good to know. I may just have somebody cited remove the account anyway so that there's no confusion later on. Although, if I update this tablet to windows 10, my friend won't have to worry about the start screen anymore. This is good. Sent from my iPhone 6!

I think that it would be easier to just install another mail client and set it as the default. Windows Live Mail, though not my favorite, is free and works with Windows 10. Thunderbird, which is my personal choice for mail, does work well with Windows 10..
