Mail is an email client bundled with Microsoft Windows operating systems from Windows 8 onwards.[1][2] Part of Microsoft's Metro design interface philosophy, Mail is one of three apps on Windows that originate from components of Microsoft Office's Outlook program, from which the Calendar and People apps also originate.
Windows Live Mail, which is separate software, can be installed on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. Mail and Windows Live Mail do not share a common codebase, nor do they share a common architectural philosophy. However, Mail shares a similar architectural philosophy with Outlook.com, Microsoft's webmail service.[3]
