Windows Live Mail (formerly named Windows Reside Mail Desktop, code-named Elroy[1]) is a free of charge e-mail client from Microsoft's Windows Reside set of products. It is intended to be a successor for Outlook Express on Windows XP and Windows Mail on Windows Vista. The Windows Stay Mail version numbering starts at 12 because this application is an advancement of Outlook Express/Windows Mail, not an entirely new application. Windows Stay Mail is developed by the same team that wrote Windows Mail.
The application is available for download via the Windows Live Essentials suite.
