No bottom border on new messages and replies Is it an error or is it intentional in Windows Live Mail that message replies and the window for new messages have no bottom border? | My System Specs |

You're right, I don't see any bottom border on any emails, received, sent, new, or replies. Acutally, there is a bottom border for those windows that need horizontal scrolling but it's not truely functional since there is no way to grab the bottom edge and pull it up to resize the window. Fot that reason, I'd say it's a mistake and will hopefully be corrected in the next (wave 4) version. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number OQO 2+ OS Windows 7 Enterprise Trial 32-bit SP1 CPU Intel Atom 1.86 GHz Motherboard OQO 2+ Memory 2 GB Graphics Card Intel GMA 500 Sound Card IDT Monitor(s) Displays LCD Screen Resolution 800 x 480 (portable) 1280 x 1024 (docked) Keyboard Slide out (portable) DiNovo Edge (docked) Mouse Eraser head (portable) Logitech Bluetooth (docked) PSU 9 Ah Battery (portable) or OQO Brick (docked) Case Shirt Pocket Sized Cooling Tiny Fan Hard Drives 64 GB SSD Internet Speed WWAN or 802.11G (portable) T1 (docked) Other Info DVD-RW OQO Docking Station |

Thanks, Roncerr. That was the first thing I noticed when I first used Windows Live Mail. Very odd-looking. If it is a mistake, should it be reported to Microsoft as such? How would I or someone else do that?
And is there a target date for the wave 4 release? | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Studio XPS 8100 OS Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP 1 CPU Intel Core i7 860 @ 2.8 GHz Motherboard Dell 0T568R (CPU1) Memory 8.0 GB Dual Channel DDR3 @ 664 MHz (9-9-9-24) Graphics Card nVidia GeForce GTS 240 Sound Card M-Audio Delta Audiophile 2496 Monitor(s) Displays Dell 2407WFP Screen Resolution 1920x1200 Hard Drives 977 GB Western Digital WDC WD1001FAES-75W7A0 (SCSI) Antivirus MSE, MalwareBytes Anti-Malware Browser Firefox Other Info Microsoft Security Essentials, Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird.

And is there a target date for the wave 4 release? There is a "send feedback" link under the "?" menu at the top of the main screen in WLM. The wave 4 beta has been in public beta since June but I haven't tried it yet. Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: Windows Live Essentials 2011 :
"The company expects to ship the new version of Windows Live Essentials, the internally named "wave 4" release, by the end of 2010, well over a year and a half after the wave 3 release." | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number OQO 2+ OS Windows 7 Enterprise Trial 32-bit SP1 CPU Intel Atom 1.86 GHz Motherboard OQO 2+ Memory 2 GB Graphics Card Intel GMA 500 Sound Card IDT Monitor(s) Displays LCD Screen Resolution 800 x 480 (portable) 1280 x 1024 (docked) Keyboard Slide out (portable) DiNovo Edge (docked) Mouse Eraser head (portable) Logitech Bluetooth (docked) PSU 9 Ah Battery (portable) or OQO Brick (docked) Case Shirt Pocket Sized Cooling Tiny Fan Hard Drives 64 GB SSD Internet Speed WWAN or 802.11G (portable) T1 (docked) Other Info DVD-RW OQO Docking Station |

The problem is back again with the latest Windows updates. Anyone else have the same issue?
