No Mail icon in Control Panel in windows vista 64bit

I’m trying to make a change to my mail profile and I was advised to go to Control Panel-> Mail. However, when I go to Control Panel, there is no Mail icon. I’m using Windows Vista 64-bit.

Windows Vista 64-bit is the keyword here. Outlook is a 32-bit application and so is its Mail applet in Control Panel. 32-bit items have their own section in the Control Panel which is easily overlooked.

To get to the Mail icon choose;
Start-> Control Panel-> (Additional Options) View 32-bit Control Panel Items-> Mail

If you have Outlook pinned to the top of your Start Menu there is a much shorter way to reach it; Start-> right click on the Outlook icon-> Properties
