Hmmm... this is bugging me.... I was invited to the beta by a member here on Neowin (Thanks again!! :D ) But the thing is, I cannot for the life of me find out how to submit a bug to Microsoft (I've read through this thread and looked at ideas/connect and other things and still can't find it!). Are the people who are invited by other beta tester able to submit bugs? Or is it just the beta testers who was selected by Microsoft? I can see in the "Help" menu it says "Submit feedback" I click it and receive an error message:

"This service is currently not available. We are aware of this issue and are working to resolve it as quickly as possible. Please try one of the following options for assistance;"

Is there a way to submit a bug? Sorry, I know this has been asked throughout this thread I just can't seem to find it!!

Only beta testers are able to report bugs by means of Microsoft Connect (I've already submitted one). Nonetheless, if you are not a beta tester picked by MS (I mean a person invited by a beta tester) you can do it by means of the official Windows Live Messenger 8.0 blog.

I hope this helps.

Except for MSN, where offline messaging means you can send messages to contacts when your status is appear offline. I don't know why they don't have a feature like Yahoo's...

No, it doesn't. It means you can send a message to an offline contact and they will receive it when they sign on.

ohh dear, this is a let down. I like MSN 7.5. But we will have to use the new one. if we are to stay with msn. Most people I know only have a msn, and dont use yahoo or the like. So this crap will have to do.

Do they hate Canadians or something?

I can't submit any bugs (And I found like 3... Other people probably submitted them already :( ) because the "beta" didn't start yet.

The weird part is that I got an email with the download, and two invitations already! (I ALREADY USED THEM)

The beta has not yet started but keep an eye on your inbox for an email from us with information on where to download the software.

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      Any decent ITSM will A) have a web form that allows a user to raise a ticket, if you're writing an email you can write a ticket. B) Monitor a mailbox and auto-generate tickets based on inbound mails for those users that really can't get their heads around the concept that if you have an issue you go to support.mycompany.com and fill in the box. From your description you're having users email the desk, and then having a human read each one and manually raise a ticket on behalf of the user.

      Fixing things? Have you ever tried linux? Everything works out of the box nowadays in most common hardware. This includes Wifi and Bluetooth. If anything, if they return back to windows is because they haven't found an equivalent program which often used on windows.
