This week we are starting to test a new build of the Windows Live Mail Desktop Beta. As part of this, we’re beginning to invite some additional folks to join the beta, hammer on our code and test out some new features (live link on features to the Active Search blog post). We’d like to extend a big welcome to our new  Progress Since our initial release, we’ve been camping out in beta newsgroups, dogfooding Mail Desktop internally and getting early feedback from beta participants — all to help us release an update that we hope you’ll consider making your primary experience for managing email, RSS and newsgroups.  We’re not done yet! In the coming months, we’ll be working on a number of improvements and new features. Oh, and opening up the beta. Stay tuned there’s more to come!  Oji Udezue, Program Manager   Tue, 20 Jun 2006 23:53:29
Our team has published a Channel 9 video listing the new features in Windows Live Mail Desktop beta. This is a great chance to get a tour of the features that are being released.
 This video covers most of our current features. A few are not shown, such as Active Search (see blog post on that feature).   The WLDM Channel 9 video is available here: http://channel9.msdn.com/Showpost.aspx?postid=200389 Â

Tanja is the newest program manager on our team and will be officially heading up the blog! In the past, our blog was headed by a small group of internal bloggers interested in talking about the product. But now that Tanja’s on board, we’ll have a dedicated person who’s going to be maintaining the blog and posting on a regular basis. That doesn’t mean the rest of the team won’t be posting but rather our communication with you will be speedier and more responsive. I’ll let Tanja introduce herself in her own words.

You Talked – We Listened! We have another Beta refresh build available for you to download today! I am always excited to give the news that we’re releasing an update, but this one is especially exciting for me because I think you’re going to be incredibly pleased with some of the new features that have been added since the last build. Why do I think that? Well, just take a look at the list below and let’s see if I was right… ;-)
One last thing – and then I’ll let you go to install and play with the new build… I’m just about finished pulling together a list of Known Issues to provide to our Beta testers. We wanted to ensure the list would be easy to navigate through, so the Known Issues won’t be completely comprehensive, but it will contain some of the larger items that we’re already aware of. Look for another Blog (and Newsgroup) post from me in the next couple days which will contain more information. That’s about it – now go and enjoy the latest build! And keep the feedback coming! --tanja

Hey all! In case you couldn’t tell from the title…there’s a new Beta Refresh build available for your testing pleasure!
Please go up to our usual spot and download the latest build today.Â
Build specifics: build # 8.0.1223 and is available for English, German, Japanese and Dutch.
Known issue: As usual with our beta builds, please be aware that you may run into problems while upgrading. Please consider uninstalling older versions first to avoid issues.
With this build, you’re not going to see a lot of large feature changes. What you will see, however, is even better - which is, simply put, an improved overall experience while using the product. We’ve spent the majority of the time since the last refresh focusing on making WLMd more stable and reliable. These are the types of changes that our customers may not notice right off the bat. But, weeks from now you’ll be sitting at your desk (using WLMd, of course) and it will suddenly hit you -
With this latest refresh you’ll see a shortened first run experience, better integration between Windows Live Messenger and WLMd, updates to our interaction with the Search Box, and hundreds of other fixed issues across all of our features… I also wanted to point out a new option under our Help menu in case you didn’t see it there last time. As you may have noticed, you can now migrate your Windows Mail data on Vista to WLMd. Give this a try, and let us know how it works for you. If you have any trouble, please use the “Migration Failure” option under the Help menu. Finally, thanks to everyone who’s been submitting issues to the product team through the Connect site! Since we added this feature, we’ve seen a lot of great issues and suggestions come in. Please keep it up! We love to get this type of feedback from our customers… J I know I said “finally” in my last paragraph – but I actually have one more thing to say, so…
Finally-finally, I think this might be one of the last posts you’ll see from before the new year rolls around as I’m going to be heading off to different parts of the US to spend time with friends and family. So, I just wanted to take a minute to wish everyone a happy holiday season, and best wishes in the coming year! See you all in 2007!

As many of you know, we’ve released a number of Beta builds since last April…and many of you were eager to install them and try out the latest features. But, there are still a bunch of people out there who haven’t been upgrading their builds, and we wanted to make this process easier for them. Part of the problem is just the barrier behind letting people know that an update was out there. Up to this point, we’ve only really been able to inform customers about new builds through email invites, and blog and newsgroup posts. But, with the build that’s going to be available in the next day or so – we’re going to change all that! From now on, any new builds that are released for WLMd will also be available through Microsoft Update. So, in the next couple days, everyone should see a notification letting them know that an update is available. We’re hoping that with the addition of this feature, more and more of our customers will upgrade to newer builds so you can all see the amazing work this team has been doing on the product. It also helps us out because the feedback that we receive from you will be more recent and will help us get a better understanding of the quality of the current builds. In addition to hooking up support for notifications on new builds for WLMd, this build also contains some changes in the contacts space. There aren’t a whole lot of major updates here, but you might notice some improvements in stability and also a couple small bug fixes. Just a few more quick comments…
Even though we’re only aware of the issue above, this doesn’t mean that it’s the only issue out there! Please try the new update feature out and let us know if you run into any problems. The Connect database is still open to everyone – so keep the data flowing in! That’s about it for now… Have fun with the new build! --tanja   Thu, 29 Mar 2007 20:00:04
