Windows Live Admin Center (changed from Windows Live Custom Domains in November 2007) was a service provided by Microsoft as part of the now discontinued Windows Live suite of services. It enabled users with domain names to change their domain MX records (email server records) so that all features of Outlook.com would be available on their own domain names.
Email accounts provided by Admin Center were Windows Live IDs and can be used to sign into MSN Messenger and Windows Live Messenger and all other Windows Live ID-enabled services.
One Windows Live ID can be set as the administrator, and using that ID, accounts can be created, modified, or deleted. The administrator may also choose to allow anyone to create their own account in the domain via a link on the domain's website. Administrators can choose from a web-based or Windows-based application to manage all aspects of their domain accounts.
Users with Admin Center accounts can check their emails using Windows Live Hotmail, Windows Live Mail, and Outlook.
