We’ve finally done it! Our ‘little’ project to bring you the next generation consumer mail application is going massively public. As of today (actually we slipped it out quietly last week or so) we are instituting a hassle-free sign up for the Mail Desktop beta. No beta invitation emails are necessary. Simply go through the process below and you should be up and running in minutes.
In case you’ve forgotten, here’s some of the great things you get with Live Mail Desktop now:

*Windows Live Custom Domains and MSN premium accounts are not supported by the beta program at this time.
