    Windows 7 An alternative for Windows Live Mail 2012?

    Can anyone suggest an alternative desktop based email program that will stop me having to enter into Office 365 or upgrade to Windows 8 or 10? I am quite happy with Windows 7, I don't use Windows "productivity applications", and I just want to be able to access my @outlook emails on my computer...
