Windows Live Admin Center

Windows Live Admin Center (changed from Windows Live Custom Domains in November 2007) is a service provided by Windows Live. It enables users with domain names to change their domain MX record(s) (mail server records) so that all features of Windows Live Hotmail will be available on their own domain names.

Email accounts provided by Admin Center are Windows Live IDs and can be used to sign into MSN Messenger and Windows Live Messenger and all other Windows Live ID enabled services.

One Windows Live ID can be set as the administrator and using that ID accounts can be created, modified or deleted. The administrator may also choose to allow anyone to create his or her own account in the domain via a link on the domain's web site. Administrators can choose from a web-based or Windows-based application to manage all aspects of their domain accounts.

Users with Admin Center accounts can check their emails using Windows Live Hotmail, Windows Live Mail, and Outlook.

Famous quotes containing the words windows, live and/or center:

    “this frenzy,
    like bees stinging the heart all morning,
    will keep the angels
    with their windows open,
    wide as an English bathtub.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “by and by, the cause of my disease
    Gives me a pang that inwardly doth sting,
    When that I think what grief it is again
    To live and lack the thing should rid my pain.”
    —Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    “Louise Bryant: I’m sorry if you don’t believe in mutual independence and free love and respect.
    Eugene O’Neill: Don’t give me a lot of parlor socialism that you learned in the village. If you were mine, I wouldn’t share you with anybody or anything. It would be just you and me. You’d be at the center of it all. You know it would feel a lot more like love than being left alone with your work.”
    —Warren Beatty (b. 1937)
