It should be noted that this is a PREVIEW RELEASE. This is *not* a released service back.

It's the best thing to do .... wait for the finished product. I believe MS is still having problems with it, this is why it's still at the Beta stage.

Anyway, when the full product is released it should automatically be down loaded in updates as a service pack if you have XP.

I have had it for 24 hours and the only difference I can see is that the default setting prevents tracing images from opening. That's a great feature; until now I systematically double-clicked "work offline" after having downloaded my mails to achieve the same result.

Does this feature equals to blocking those invisible scripts that spammers uses?
