Windows Live Messenger 2011 and older versions give you (via your passport.net account) the opportunity to
read your Gmail emails without actually leaving the Messenger interface. This is especially useful in those cases where you don’t want to terminate a chat or the user you are chatting with just sent you an email. Such a feature, is also available on previous,
old Windows Live Messengers, but despite this a lot of users still do not know about it! Funny how people get stuck on criticizing about the new features available on WLM2011 instead of learning what the Microsoft chat interface can offer you! However, in this article I will show you how to easily read your email (not only those belonging to your Gmail account) on Live Messenger (msn) in a couple of steps.
