While many of us are busy using Gmail, those of us who still use Hotmail, every now and then have some things new to look forward to. Microsoft has launched a bunch of nifty little features on the free e-mail service. They’ve also updated their Android app . Some of them are to do with scheduled cleaning up of your inbox, so you don’t have to manually click on each e-mail and delete it; it can be done in a more systematic manner now. The One-click unsubscribe feature lets you quickly delete newsletters from your mailbox or block them in the future. This is handy if you have a habit of subscribing to many such newsletters and have found these clogging up your inbox. Then, there’s flagging, which lets you pick up important e-mails and place them prominently at the top of the list.
There’s one new feature, which reminds you, if you haven’t attached a file. There’s also the option to upload large files using Skydrive, a file hosting service by Microsoft. Some commonly performed tasks have also been made simpler. The instant action feature lets you customize these, so they can be performed really easily with a single click. Clearly, Microsoft hasn’t given up on Hotmail and they continue to pile on more features as time goes by
