Very nice,
Can you access it by the options menu to change the scheme or is it set like this now?
Also they should do a red :P

You want it, you got it
We’re getting all kinds of great ideas from you about what we can do to make Windows Live™ Mail an even better experience, and have been adding them as fast as we can.

Be sure to thank yourself for these new features

Delete your junk mail more easily. Simply locate the down arrow on your junk e-mail folder and click to delete everything in it. Clear out your deleted items folder the same way.

Pick your colors. Make the Mail experience look the way you want by selecting your own color scheme. Just click the colors link in the upper right hand corner.

Find your contacts with the greatest of ease. Start typing a name in the “Find in contacts” field, and a list of possible names immediately pops up. Then, just choose a name from this list.

Your in classic view. Go to "Options" -> "Your Account" (left hand bar) -> Click the option:  "Choose inbox layout: Windows Live Mail Experience or Classic Hotmail View " then "(Recommended) Use Windows Live Mail Experience ...".

same - i like it even more now, the idea of reverting back to hotmail style is cool - im still unsure of which i like most - probably the WLMail style
the idea ofc olours and stuff is really cool also
RE: update Windows live mail :D by guanako on 03-02-2006 at 10:03 PM

pretty cool you even get the network status of live mail in case it doesnt work u get redirected to there for info, just like the service status on Msgr.


RE: update Windows live mail :D by DJKAL on 03-02-2006 at 10:07 PM

RE: update Windows live mail :D by ~INVASION~ on 03-03-2006 at 01:44 AM

ya tis a nice new feature but loads sooo muc slower then before now, laggy as hell but im sure theyll tweak that :d


RE: update Windows live mail :D by Curtis on 03-03-2006 at 02:26 AM

Yeah the loading time now makes me think Adobe designed it.  I made mine orange.


RE: update Windows live mail :D by Voldemort on 03-03-2006 at 02:29 AM

i would be nice if they made a gmail ripoff. without looking at the source :P
gmail is really efficient.


RE: update Windows live mail :D by zach on 03-03-2006 at 05:39 AM

It's improving... Now I can use it in Firefox. It will be nice when it's finished (h)


RE: update Windows live mail :D by Discrate on 03-03-2006 at 05:48 AM

I hate the knew one, becuase 1. it wont let me scroll down cuase it dosent have a scroll bar. 2.instead of oging down the screen it goes across the screen so all the time i have to scroll across the screen. Also it feels squashed, This is when i veiw it in Ie. But then when i veiw it in firefox it is so good.


RE: update Windows live mail :D by Lt.Col.DraGon on 03-04-2006 at 09:34 AM

I love the new WLMail...

Not having any issues so far. Everything is much better than before, but yeah.. joelm is right about teh squashed thing, I feel that there is not enough space to see everything because of the ad on the side, It would be better if the WLMail team took off that ad and left the one on the top.

On firefox it's getting better too. Now I can actually go in school and send myself attachments instead of using gmail. So now I'm really proud of what the WLMail team has done in quite a few months.

I know they will improve/fix the bugs and add new stuff to it so it looks even nicer. Can't wait for M6 :D !
