Is this true?
"(So, what was Windows Live Mail is now Windows Live Hotmail, and Windows Live Mail desktop is now Windows Live Mail, and Outlook Express and Windows Mail (in Vista) are being phased out." Got it from here liveside.net/blogs/main/archive/2007/05/07/windows-live-hotmail-launches-worldwide.aspx |

You can't get more official than a Microsoft press release: microsoft.com/presspass/press/2007/may07/05-06WLHotmailLaunchPR.mspx Gary VanderMolen |

Well, I will believe the Official MS press release...at least as much as press releases can be believed. I tried Window Live Mail Desktop...for one day. I uninstalled it. I would use Windows Mail if it had OpenPGP support. I've used Outlook 2003 and Thunderbird because they do their jobs well. I see no need for an email service that forces me to either buy a premium service or be bombarded with advertising. I have never seen a need for any of the free email services such as hotmail, gmail, etc. I've never seen the need for web mail since I always have an email client on any computer or PDA I use, and if you think I am stupid enough to enter a user name and password on a public computer which can log keystrokes, guess again. If MS actually tries to push people into this kind of thing and actually phase out pure email clients, I will use someone else's product. I tried Live Messenger for one day and then went back to Trillian. Did I mention that I discard text messages from my cell phone without ever reading them? Thought I'd better add some perspective. ;-) - Iron Feliks -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGQLgpIEgejQPpTu4RCkwiAKCiQxxOLx5htch33MAvxbaRf6YCpwCgmTVj DlGrujJQs83N90PO2UjD9gE= =286M -END PGP SIGNATURE- |
