You thought a 5GB hotmail account was cool?? How about 10GB in an Exchange Labs hosted email?

You got it--and more--because now Live@edu has partnered with Exchange Labs to offer some significant improvements in features and functionality. Live@edu already utilizes Office Live Workspace to bring web-based portal and collaboration tools to students. With the addition of Exchange e-mail hosting, students will have the ability to work and connect with others the same way enterprise class corporations worldwide do which gives them a leg up on understanding the technologies they will use after school.

I'll admit... I'm pretty much addicted to Outlook Web Access and getting e-mail on my Windows Mobile phone.

I wish OSU would use Live@Edu. The buckeye mail system uber sucks. On the other hand, I think Microsoft needs to step it up with IMAP support. Seriously, compared to thunderbird, Outlook and Live Mail are so freaking slow.

I wish I could get a exchange labs account for my own domain. I'm a student. Why should I miss out just because my school doesn't use live@edu? Big Smile

I'm drooling at the thought of push mail/sync'd contacts and calendar with my windows mobile phone. I currently use google apps, but it just doesn't sync well w/ my phone and outlook. Anybody at MS want to hook me up with the 'Friends and Family' access to exchange labs? </nudge, maybe?>

Can someone else go check out my.liveatedu.com and see if it loads in your browser. Everytime I go it tells me to load Silverlight(in IE and Firefox) but it is already installed. Any ideas?
