Outlook 2007 vs windows live mail
 

I was using outlook 2003 with connector for my live account and others such
as yahoo, google... on win. XP, after upgrading to vista i decided to try
windows live mail and i find out that with windows live mail,setting up and
connecting to live account and others is easier than with outlook 2007. My
question is to know why we need connector to connect windows live account to
outlook 2007? when outlook 2007 and windows live mail product of the same
corporation?
Is windows live mail better than outlook 2007 ? for i eventually decided to
use windows live mail as my mail client software.

Outlook versions do not support the new DeltaSync protocol to which Live
Hotmail is changing to. They only support the old WebDAV protocol which
is getting dropped. That's why you have to add the Connector plug-in
because it supports DeltaSync.

Windows Live Mail supports DeltaSync.

Is live mail better than outlook? It depends on your needs. For some people
LM is perfect and outlook is too large, too many features, too slow etc.
Other people need the extra features available in Outlook.
