First look: Microsoft's newest email client Outlook.com

Can't MS come up with a new name. This is the fourth "Outlook". First, there is Outlook Express which comes with Windows, then there is Outlook which comes with Office, then Outlook Web Access which comes with Exchange, and now this Outlook. Try supporting these things when the user has no idea what they are using--all they know is someone said it was Outlook. Each works differently. Same problem with Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer; two different animals with similar (at least to the user) names.

This style of presentation is awkward.

in addition to Outlook Express. Though I don't think I have 4 gigs of emails.
Live Mail sometimes seems to startup a tad slower, but it does a pretty good
job of spam filtering.

dang it's slow! And of course this opens up the operating system to attack even more. I'm not whining - I still use it for banking, because I can add more security protections to it and Mozilla; but just the same - I wish they'd wake up.

mean the client.

thanks DE
