RevoDS Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) Someone on AeroXP found a trick to get in Windows Live Mail without an invite! 1. Copy and paste 2. Sign in 3. It shouldn't work, so copy again and you should get to a page where you can click on a button labeled "Participate" 4.Enjoy! Take it while it's hot, and before MS takes it down! Edit for the ones that don't read the entire thread: Last minute notes -An account must most likely have been created for at least a month. -If there's no button on the page, try to change your account settings to Language:english Country:United States State:Florida (thanks to cai_sebas for this one) -If you're redirected to hotmail, TRY AGAIN as you must already be logged to passport before seeing the page Little edit: This is only to be able to edit again if I need or when it'll be fixed Edited December 30, 2005 by creamhackered Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/414296-if-you-want-live-mail-invites/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai_sebas Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 When following this will return me at the very end to the "normal" Hotmail. Maybe it takes time before taking affect. We shall see.

RevoDS Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 Look if your storage has increased to 2GB , if yes, it worked and in the next two weeks you will see Windows Live Mail. If no, retry because for every person that did it correctly, it works For every one who cant make it work: Change Language to English Location to United States of America And State to Florida. When trying again you should get MAIL Beta I got it in french and it worked even if I was already in Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/414296-if-you-want-live-mail-invites/#findComment-586991340 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zionyx Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) Pity that it doesnt work for me... :( Edit: Blah, it seems like a few people are having the issue where it just goes back to normal Hotmail, no change. Heh, we're not supposed to be testing it anyway ;) Edit2: And it wasnt even a participate button for me... it was "Join Mail Beta!"... is this odd?
