Mail Beta takes advantage of promising web design tech to make you feel like using a mail client not a webmail. Sad, Kahuna loves me not. :(

[black.ops]

Signed up but got nothing.

Is it for the U.S. users only?

[Ajapi]

I got it :D Doesn't work with Firefox though..Had to use IE to access it properly. Not gonna be using it till I can see it with Firefox.

[Mystical112]

nice looks cleaner... i didnt have the button either... :(

[redfish]

i didnt get it .. but then again, it took a while to upgrade everyone's storage space, so who knows whats happening

[Des429]

i heard that people that got it now have 2 gigs of storage, or is that still just for subscribers?

[Andrew Lyle Global Moderator]

cant see it in firefox.. or IE. oh well

[turkishdelight]

I got in :D

The new interface looks much cleaner, and there's a whole lot more whitespace than before. See previous screenshots for details.

Sorry for those of you who want a screenie of the button, I didn't get one before I clicked it :p

Thanks to Firefox's caching abilities, here you go.

No, I am a UK user.

Hmm.. looking at the address of the screenshots of the new mail beta, it appears to be located at 'mail.start.com' instead of the usual 'hotmail.msn.com'

Went to http://mail.start.com just to see and it came up with a sign in page for 'mail beta' (as long as you're signed out of hotmail) After signing in, it just goes to the regular old hotmail though.

Interesting... sorry if thats old and obvious news

EDIT: now it redirects to the old sign-in page

[turkishdelight]

And Firefox's view. I couldn't upload this image in my last post because of attachment size restrictions per post.

HOW DARE YOU SAY IT LOOKS LIKE A MAIL CLIENT!!!!!

You see, if you say that, Bill Gates will start placing adverts into Microsoft Office 12/2006. And that would lead to severe trauma in my head, due to me bashing it like the attatchment. :yes:
