With over 200 million active accounts, Microsoft's Hotmail has the largest free e-mail user base in the world today. For its latest Web mail offering, Microsoft brings together experience from several different mail products aside from Hotmail, including Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, and Entourage (Outlook's counterpart on the Macintosh platform). We had a chance to test out Kahuna—which may become Hotmail's replacement. For now, it's a closed beta; so far Microsoft has invited a select group of 200,000 users to try out the updated Web mail application. According to a com-pany spokesperson, this beta program will expand in the coming months. Head on to pcmag.com to read their full test report of Microsoft's upcoming Mail webservice.
