I have been using this “Live Mail” since they started, a week ago I stopped being able to display my message content, to explain, all appears normal at the inbox level, new messages, old etc, but when I try to open a message, none of the content of the message displays, just a blank page. I have used the feedback and nobody takes any interest, not that I could read any reply. I have tried to opt out but that doesn’t work, I am now forced after a week to start redirecting my mail to a competent e-mail client!
Steer well clear of this Live Mail crap

Microsoft Live Fremont

According to PCMag, Microsoft is testing it’s answer to Google Base and Craigslist. Codenamed Fremont, the service will allow people to post listings, which will be indexed and made available via Microsoft’s search engine. It’s unclear, as with Goog…

GoDaddy.com already gives you free email with each domain purchased. The disk space aint huge but most people are POPing it anyway. You also have webmail access, SPAM filters, etc. This isn’t overly impressive.

If MSFT also gave you some free hosting with it then things would be significant.

I tested this out and it took about 100 clicks to set everything up. In the end, I had two interfaces… domains.live.com where I can manage email accounts in my domain and hotmail.com where the accounts access their email.

I was never able to get more than 2mb of space per account, even though domains.live.com gives instructions to update each account’s msn profile to your home country in order to “receive the correct inbox size for their country”

This will be great for people who run organizations whose employees really love hotmail.com. ahem.

It gives you a hotmail interface for now (with hotmail storage) but there is this in a recent post:

“Kahuna (the new AJAX e-mail UI)

Speaking of Kahuna, we are launching an invitation program to get people into the Beta. We are also working on getting all Domain adminstrators assigned a number of invites. Stay tuned for this. We’ll get this out to you as soon as we can.”

Might be a good way to get a first peak at Kahuna.

Re: Gmail. They let you send from any address but it has the annoying Address X on behalf of AddressY@gmail.com in the header, which looks a little unprofessional.

I would LOVE to see something like this from the GMail team. GMail interface, functionality and storage w/ my own domain name. killer!

I would love to use this service, but there’s no way I’m going to use webmail (esp Hotmail), and there’s no way I’m going to pay MSFT $20/year for Hotmail Plus, which is required for POP access. Allow free Pop like Gmail and I’m there.

I just tried it with a domain I had lying around - it doesn’t use Kahuna.

With Gmail you can send e-mail from any adress, you only have to redirect e-mail. It’s perfect.

Leo F: Gmail already lets you add different addresses to be the from address. If you have a domain, just setup the catch-all forwarder to go to your gmail if you are so inclined.

Kyle: It uses kahuna as mentioned on the Custom Domains blog.

Mike,

Yes, the domain registrars *and* email providers are paying attention. Microsoft is someone we all watch closely. It will definitely be interesting to see where they head with this service - are they going to become a true service company? Do any of them want to be in the service business? Personally, I don’t think so, but we’ll see.

I’ve always wondered why a Gmail of the world hasn’t worked with hosting email for organizations before. University .edu webmails are typically crappy (I know ours at Miami U is…) and it seems like it would be easier for the university and a benefit to Google in the advertising to provide and host the ***.edu emails for a school. No fuss for the school, better webmail for the student, more ad-views for the service.

Right - so we shouldn’t use free open source software because it will lead to a loss of jobs.

Using their own logic, they shouldn’t be offering this service at all.

I wonder when Google will let us use Gmail with our own domain. But Microsoft is clearly ahead in this battle.

“Until now, generally only domain name registrars offered this kind of service, and it was both costly and had a very web 1.0 interface.”

Actually, Yahoo! Mail Personal Address was another major player in the field.
