Hotmail's new Kahuna mail beta

radiospan · 27-10-2005 3:00pm #1

Signed into my Hotmail today, and saw a link on top to "Join the mail beta".

Anyone else get this?

Their new mail look (doesn't seem to be called Hotmail anymore, just "mail beta"?) is alot like Outlook.

Much quicker than the old hotmail anyway.

Cheers for the screenshot. You can use this to get images to show:

sometimes if images are too big they'll only show as links though.

It looks like a definate improvement, at least they seem to have fewer banner ads. For god sake with the money that MS is raking in, they should be providing at least 20Meg space, a 20Meg attachment size limit (only useful for sending to other hotmail users as most ISPs limit inbound emails sizes to 4 or 6Megs), NO SPAM ie a decent Spam filter like those used by O2 and Gmail which really cut a lot of the sh1t received and NO ADs MS does not need advertising, they have more then enough money to support there services.

Been using it almost a month, and it's better than the old one, but only cos the old Hotmail is terrible.

I'll try to post a screenshot tonight, it's got a handy right-click menu on your emails. You can just right click on one and choose from Reply, Delete, and other options.

Yahoo are bringing out a new mail thing soon too. It's not in public beta yet, but people say its better than Gmail?

Kahuna definately isn't.
