Outlook Express 5 - was free

i think this is linked more to internet explorer than to office. (it is not the same as Outlook 2000.) the newest version of outlook express that i know of is 5.5 and comes with ie 5.5. they are downloadable from microsoft.

But I am not able to find the site that just offers Outlook Express for downloading, in order to get the most current version. When I search on Outlook Express, it takes me to the Outlook pages where one has to 'purchase' it. Any idea where I can download the latest version of Outlook Express?

Thank you.

Outlook Express is free whereas Outlook is not free. You've to pay for Outlook 97, 98 or 2000.

As answer 1 stated, Outlook Express (OE) is part of Internet Explorer, not Office. There is no OE 2000. The latest is OE 5.5 SP1, which comes with ... you guessed it IE5.5 SP1. To get the version of OE you want, you download that IE version. (Which is free)
