Question about Outlook Express

When will Windows live mail (Desktop) new version be available?

Secondly will this app be available or discontinued like outlook express?

Whether social updated will be available in future or not. 

I am using this app since last 3 years and like very much. I do not like to switch outlook 2013 on Win 8.

I bought a laptop with win 8 and thinking whether to choose Win 8 mail app, WLM 2012 or Outlook 2013.

I have to configure my email, If this would be discontinued in near future than should I start to use outlook 2013.

I successfully moved from Outlook Express on an XP system - porting archived messages, etc.  Overall Live Mail is working, but I'm noticing some isolated issues. (1) At times I get a duplicated inbox message. On the second copy the message's title is in quotes.  (2) Occasionally I am unable to delete a message from my inbox. If I move the message to another folder, I can delete it.  (3) At times when I send a message, it is sent but my retained copy appears in my sent folder as an unopened message.  (4) This is the most troubling issue: Yesterday I tried opening a message from a trusted sender, but was unable to open it. Instead I got the message "A problem occurred trying to open the message. Try again".  Trying again didn't help. I tried moving the message to another folder, but still couldn't open it. I couldn't look at the properties on the message - I got the same "problem occurred " message. I was able to delete the message.

    The first three issues are annoying, but not impossible to work around.  The fourth issue is a real problem.  Has anyone else encountered it?  Is there a fix?  I was quite pleased for the first 6-7 weeks I've been running the Live Mail, but the issues are escalating in severity.  Can I expect worse things?  Thanks for any insights you can share!
