New Mouse & keyboard shortcuts

You now have right-click option in your inbox. Right Click on a message and you’ll see a new menu that allows you to Reply, Reply all, Forward, Delete and a few more options that were already there for the message.So now just like in Outlook, you can get your work done even quicker than earlier.

New keyboard shortcuts that you’re used to in Outlook, such as Ctrl+N for a new message, and Ctrl+Enter to send a message is provided.
For those who are used to Yahoo! Mail, you have the 'N' keyboard shortcut to Create a New Mail. And if you’re from Gmail, then # can be used to delete a message.

Personalization

Hotmail has had the ability to customize an individual email message. Now its better. Get into your Hotmail options and set a default font and personal signature for all your email messages, the same way as you do in Outlook.

Not just that, if you accidentally delete a message, now you can delete some if not all from a link in the Deleted Folder.

And Hotmail UI is now faster that it was earlier. Try it out yourself.
