It wasn't available yet when I made the comment above. I'm thinking of leaving Windows Live Custom Domains for Google. I really love how GMail manages e-mails. Sam,

Check out google.com/hosted and you will find it is the same service..except with gmail. It is excellent and I have it for all 5 of my domains. The catch is that you apply and they have to approve you. They approved me on all accounts though, so as long as you as for a reasonable number of email accounts you should get in.

In GMail, what you specify in the Accounts tab is a custom from address and Google warns that: "each time someone replies to a message you send using a custom 'From:' address, the reply will be delivered to the 'From:' address rather than your Gmail address." In Customs Domains, you manage your mail settings in the domains.live.com page. It's like having your mail server hosted by Microsoft. Each account is a full-fledge e-mail account and not just a custom address. In my case, for example, I own the www.limpag.com domain. I can create @limpag.com email accounts using my Ploghost CPanel but doing this will eat up part of my disk space because CPanel locks up the allocated e-mail space for the accounts. If I specify, let's say admin(at)limpag(dot)com to have a 5MB inbox space, this space is subtracted from my plan's limit. By having Custom Domains manage my e-mails, I no longer worry about the disk space and even e-mail management. The e-mail accounts with (at)limpag.com now enjoy spam filters Hotmail users are enjoying. My family members using (at)limpag.com email addresses just access their e-mail through www.hotmail.com.

Try using Microsoft Explorer. I wasn't able to sign in using Firefox. I was only able to complete the process when I used Microsoft Explorer.
