Frustrated!

This was a very frustrating chapter.  The Distance Learning computers at MPL are not set up with Windows Live Essentials, therefore they do not have Windows Live Mail installed.  I'm thinking of adding the ersatz contacts to my Hotmail account and posting that; it can't be too different.  I'm also taking a chance and trying to install WLE; 1) normally I would be in violation of Library rules but since part of this course is learning how to install software and modify the computer it should be permissible on a DL computer, 2) it's taking an awfully long time and I only have 45 more minutes, 3) well, if it works somebody should be able to do this class with a LOT less frustration.
