>> As it rolled out its
>> revamped Windows Live Hotmail
>> Monday, Microsoft Corp. also promised it would deliver replacements for
>> the
>> Outlook Express and Windows Mail desktop clients along with new software
>> to
>> integrate Web mail with the corporate Outlook program.
>> Windows Live Mail will replace Outlook Express on Windows XP and Windows
>> Mail on Vista in "the coming weeks," said Microsoft. The program, which
>> will
>> handle
>> POP, IMAP and Windows Live Hotmail accounts, was characterized as a
>> faster,
>> more robust version of
>> Windows Live Mail desktop beta
>> , which has been in testing for Windows XP. The beta will be retired.
>> According to a Windows Live Mail blog, the new client will sport features
>> from Outlook Express, Windows Mail and the Windows Live Mail desktop
>> beta.
>> A
>> redesigned
>> interface supports Vista's Aero look and feel -- the first Windows Live
>> offering to do so -- and the program adds S/MIME and LDAP support. It
>> will
>> be advertisement-free.
>>
>> Also due in the next few weeks, said Microsoft, is an updated Outlook
>> Connector, software that synchronizes messages, address books, tasks and
>> calendars
>> between Windows Live Hotmail and Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007. An
>> earlier
>> edition of the Connector was launched by Microsoft last November.
>> Swapping in the Windows Live Mail client for Vista's Windows Mail might
>> surprise Vista users, since the operating system has been out less than
>> four
>> months.
