Live.com Mail Beta
Don’t know if a bunch of people just got invited or what, but I received my Live.com Mail beta invitation today. You have to agree to the EULA thingy and then you’re in! It says that your account will get updated within two weeks, but mine was switched over immediately :) Its pretty cool, its got calendar and contacts in addition to email, however the calendar and contacts are driven less by ajax and more by an iframe that does postbacks. Still works really well, looks very similar to Outlook, but with a “webby” feel to it. I hope they implement contact import/export, and not just to Outlook, I would like some csv/xml support.
One thing I wish they would do is lose the graphical ads, they’re annoying, take up too much horizontal space, and the ads are for Windows Live Mail Beta Feedback. They should be less conspicuous.
Good job so far, however, I’m diggin it

I received the same email. The email itself was not standards compliant, making the “sign up” button impossible to click in FireFox (my browser of choice).
I replied to the email that I don’t want anything to do with them if they can’t even write a standards compliant *email*.

Rick, I thought it was pretty lame that I couldnt click it in firefox either. When you log into the email system with firefox, it simply tells you that you are using a browser that they dont support yet, but they’re working on it
