How to install outlook express on windows xp with explorer 8?

This is an awkward problem to solve and one I don't think is worth the time and effort.

The OP would be better off either using a modern webmail service like gmail or outlook.com or using a modern email client like Windows Live Mail like FX-GMC suggested or Thunderbird from Mozilla. If nothing else, Outlook Distress was notorious for corrupting its data files and losing all your email in one easy step. Not worth it.

outlook 2003 vs. outlook live - external POP3 emails

So, I'm trying to configure an external POP3/SMTP account on both of these apps.
I have all of the details needed: email address, username, password, POP3 server and port, SMTP server and port.

on outlook 2003 - everything works, I got all of my inbox (since January, when I last used it), and I can send emails.

but when configuring the same account on the free outlook.live.com (via 'Connected accounts'), or even on the Windows 10 embedded Mail app, only outgoing email works - but no email (recent or old) has been retrieved into the inbox.

**edit:
turns out any new email being sent to this POP3 account is recieved, but I can't see any of my old inbox email, between January and yesterday. Outlook 2003 have retrieved them all, but how can I see those emails in outlook live/Win10 Mail?
