Windows Live Mail will replace Outlook Express on Windows XP and Windows Mail 
on Vista in the coming weeks.

As it rolled out its revamped Windows Live Hotmail Monday, Microsoft Corp. also 
promised it would deliver replacements for the Outlook Express and Windows Mail 
desktop clients along with new software to integrate Web mail with the 
corporate Outlook program. 

Windows Live Mail will replace Outlook Express on Windows XP and Windows Mail 
on Vista in "the coming weeks," said Microsoft. The program, which will handle 
POP, IMAP and Windows Live Hotmail accounts, was characterized as a faster, 
more robust version of Windows Live Mail desktop beta, which has been in 
testing for Windows XP. The beta will be retired. 

According to a Windows Live Mail blog, the new client will sport features from 
Outlook Express, Windows Mail and the Windows Live Mail desktop beta. A 
redesigned interface supports Vista's Aero look and feel -- the first Windows 
Live offering to do so -- and the program adds S/MIME and LDAP support. It will 
be advertisement-free. 

Also due in the next few weeks, said Microsoft, is an updated Outlook 
Connector, software that synchronizes messages, address books, tasks and 
calendars between Windows Live Hotmail and Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007. An 
earlier edition of the Connector was launched by Microsoft last November. 

Swapping in the Windows Live Mail client for Vista's Windows Mail might 
surprise Vista users, since the operating system has been out less than four 
months.
