| | Beta launches Live Mail instead of live.com HI, Older versions of Mesenger would launch home.live.com for 'Email Inbox'. The new Beta launches Live Mail. How do I make it launch the Hotmail website instead? In case you want to know why: My kids have 'managed accounts' and Live Mail does not work with such accounts. Grrr. -- Sangoma |

| | RE: Beta launches Live Mail instead of live.com Try to press the "Stop signing in" button in WLM's options. It might solve your problem. Worked for me, but I don't need it, I need outlook to open and have no solution for that so far.

| | Re: Beta launches Live Mail instead of live.com Hi there, Messenger will launch Live Mail by default if installed, if not installed it will launch Hotmail, this is by design for this release. We will improve on this for our next release.

| | Re: Beta launches Live Mail instead of live.com Thank you for the explanation, but the main improvement should be to choose between Live Mail, Outlook (which I would really appreciate - It's really missing there - the connection between IM and Outlook) and certainly hotmail. Hope this helps. Thank you for your answers.

| | Re: Beta launches Live Mail instead of live.com Thanks, I've uninstalled it. What we're really after is a version of Live Mail that works with managed accounts! -- Sangoma "Marisol Ontaneda [MSFT]" wrote: Quote: > Hi there, > > Messenger will launch Live Mail by default if installed, if not installed it > will launch Hotmail, this is by design for this release.
