Is windows mail web based

Windows Mail is a desktop-based email client that comes pre-installed with Windows Vista and Windows 7. It is not a web-based email client, meaning it is not accessed through a web browser.

Instead, Windows Mail is a standalone application that runs on your computer, allowing you to manage your email accounts, compose and send emails, and access your email folders and contacts directly on your device.

However, Windows Mail does allow you to access your email accounts through the web by using the "Web View" feature. This feature allows you to view your email messages in a web browser, but you still need to have Windows Mail installed on your computer to access it.

It's worth noting that Windows Mail has been replaced by Windows Live Mail in Windows 8 and later versions of Windows. Windows Live Mail is also a desktop-based email client, but it has some additional features and improvements over Windows Mail.
