Update: Multiple delete was added today to Live Mail. You can select multiple mails by holding on to control button and clicking on the messages. Once done selecting, you can right click and select Delete. Cool !

I did a hurried post about Windows Live Mail here, a day ago. I used the new UI today extensively and found the following issues:

1. There is no way to select multiple emails to delete them. The old UI had checkboxes to select multiple emails and do a action on it. Here I had to select them by holding the SHIFT key down and selecting the mails in question. It was a hard user experience from where it came from.
2. Windows Mail Live Beta is not yet implemented fully for FireFox. My Home PCs have FireFox usage more than IE7

Outside these, there was this interesting piece of information flashing at me:

Since the system already found that the sender is a known sender (because it is in my allowed senders list), why does it need to show me “Why?” and “Report and Delete” links now. If this is only for Beta to explain the feature, then its ok. Else it is a issue.

More later !
