Yesterday 31/07/2012, Microsoft launched a new service called Mail Outlook.com.
The name comes of course from the popular email client available in the office productivity suite Microsoft Office, so that everyone will be able to immediately associate the domain outlook.com with Microsoft.
In the beginning was to refresh the services billed Hotmail.com but Microsoft decided to launch a new project which will keep existing services offered by Hotmail, adding a modern look and a few features.
Anyone who so far had an account at Hotmail.com can decide whether to remain with his current address @hotmail.com whether you want to change it to new one @outlook.com
