If you want live mail invites...

[RevoDS]

Someone on AeroXP found a trick to get in Windows Live Mail without an invite!

1. Copy and paste

2. Sign in

3. It shouldn't work, so copy again and you should get to a page where you can click on a button labeled "Participate"

4.Enjoy!

Take it while it's hot, and before MS takes it down!

Edit for the ones that don't read the entire thread:

Last minute notes

-An account must most likely have been created for at least a month.

-If there's no button on the page, try to change your account settings to

Language:english

Country:United States

State:Florida

(thanks to cai_sebas for this one)

-If you're redirected to hotmail, TRY AGAIN as you must already be logged to passport before seeing the page

Little edit: This is only to be able to edit again if I need or when it'll be fixed

When following this will return me at the very end to the "normal" Hotmail. Maybe it takes time before taking affect. We shall see.

i cant find the Participate button..

[RevoDS]

Look if your storage has increased to 2GB , if yes, it worked and in the next two weeks you will see Windows Live Mail.

If no, retry because for every person that did it correctly, it works

For every one who cant make it work:

Change Language to English

Location to United States of America

And State to Florida.

When trying again you should get MAIL Beta

I got it in french and it worked even if I was already in

[Cadish]

All I get is this page, with no Participate on :cry: :cry:

[aaron_teo]

it works for me

[RevoDS]

Cadish--->Doesnt' seem to have text on the buttons...anyway, try to click on the left little blue rectangle (if you can't see, these are the buttons)

Could work for you too RockerBoy if you have the same problem

Mystery around :whistle: :whistle:

Did you try the advice from cai-sebas(to change language and location)?

[theavidgeek]

[Brandon]

nice! thanks

[Cadish]

All I get is this page, with no Participate on :cry: :cry:

You have to set your language in English, and then it works :woot: :woot:

[sin-ergy]

haha awesome. but I don't see what the big deal is. this thing's ugly! o_O

[Zionyx]

Pity that it doesnt work for me... :(

Edit: Blah, it seems like a few people are having the issue where it just goes back to normal Hotmail, no change. Heh, we're not supposed to be testing it anyway ;)

Edit2: And it wasnt even a participate button for me... it was "Join Mail Beta!"... is this odd?

[JAbad28]

Okay, I did it and I clicked the Participate button and it went to my email but didn't change.

[ShaneSparky_YYZ]

Worked for me, thank you RevoDS :)

[theavidgeek]
