Vista - Mail or Hotmail?

Hi,
I got an email (in my hotmail account) from Windows Live team saying
there was a new Live Mail which would allow me to send photos in the body of
my email instead of as attachments. I would like this.
I thought I had everything downloaded, my browser says "Windows Live",
but all I see is Hotmail, not Mail, and when I click "new", I don't see the
new photo-email in the drop-down. I can't see "Mail" anywhere - I only see
Hotmail.
What do I need to do?

Thanks.

For most Windows programs, to verify what version you have, go to
that program's Help, About...
The current released version of Windows Live Mail is 12.0.1606, and
can be downloaded from http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview .

Whew! I finally got it. I expected it to be on my Windows Live session with
Home, Hotmail, Spaces, OneCare... and when I clicked Hotmail, I got Hotmail
on a Windows Live page. I didn't realize WLM and WL Hotmail were different,
or where to find WLM. I finally went to Start, All Programs and saw the
Windows Live Mail. I launched that and have now sent my first photo mail.
Thanks.

fyi...
Photos included in a photo-email are stored on the Live servers for
recipients to view or download. They are not retained forever(iirc 30 days,
ie. not indefinitely)
