Windows Live mail should use the scenic ribbon
Windows Live Mail should ditch the use of the old menu system and adapt the use of the ribbon. Alow color options, as not everyone wants the blue, and live mail would be a strip down version of outlook, and aimed at the general consumer.

Gone in Wave 4.
Windows Live Call uses older design.
Microsoft must think we are really stupid not to notice this. Windows live call uses a windows live messenger 8.0 style window. Keep in mind 8.0 launched about 2 years ago
Update the design to the new style. If messenger is gonna have a new look next time around, update the look of live call to that, don't just update it to 8.5 or 9.0. HAVE IT MATCH!!!!!

Closing the "add E-mail account" window presents an older dialog. (Windows live mail)
When you are in Windows Live mail, and click on "add E-mail account" and then exit the wizard, you are presented with an older dialog. Also, it has improper wording.
"Do you want to close the window without finishing" (more...)
Remove it as its a violation of the Windows Vista UX Guidelines[1].
