Outlook replacement?

Nutcase · 25-10-2009, 20:24

Having now got windows 7, I'm thinking that my copy of office XP pro is a tad out of date, so probably won't copy that across.

However, looking at my options, it's either

MS Office 2007 Home and Student 2007 (circa £60) with Exel, Powerpoint, OneNote (whatever that is!) and Word. So no Outlook.

Or

MS Office 2007 Standard (circa £160) with OneNote replaced with Outlook.

Don't really fancy spending an extra £100 for Outlook, so is this Windows Live Mail any cop? I only use POP/SMTP based email, so I guess even outlook is a bit ott for me, but I'm used to it

Or other suggestions?
