Sent... Although there's a page on msn.co.uk with a live download - no invite needed for that anymore.

check your email where mauricio has sent to, and activate your access. then you will be able to sign in (using that email address you activated) as your .net passport.

I did sent an invite but their site is currently down. You will receive an e-mail with the invitation.

Chiefie, Windows Live Mail is being rolled out slowly outside the USA, there are no invites for that.

I have Live Mail since March. You have to registrate yourself on the Windows Live website to use it.
I have nothing to say about it, I was pretty satisfied with the old mail from Hotmail, but I didnt test this one.
Looks okay and seems fast.




I is a kollege stoodent. Bee nice.

Bad links are bad, mmkay?

Live Mail is pretty good, I have to say. Shame they won't let you try it out but hey, there's always Gmail. Do you need an invite to that? Sealed

In terms of webmail for non-tech users, I rate Live Mail very highly.

Gmail is good too though. I have my mailing list stuff and web contact addresses going through that and it works a charm. It gets a huge amount of Chinese and Korean language spam for some reason though.
