    It's a pain in the ass using the "block" function if you get a lot of emails at once, because if you just do a wholesale block it only blocks the part before the @, so you have to go through each one individually and block them.


    Edit: Typo

    goto Hotmail Options and click edit personal profile and make sure that all three share boxes at the bottom of the screen are unchecked. Check these settings regularly, somehow mine keep getting checked....Microsoft screwin' around.

    I have another problem with Hotmail... unless i check my e-mail from MSN Messenger, it keeps telling me to enable cookies upon logon, but i made sure several times that cookies are enabled in all my browsers and Zone Alarm Pro... I agree M$ sux i'm only using Hotmail 'cause i always use Messenger and it's compatible.

    I have a hotmail account, I only signed up for one reason, and NEVER use it, or give it out.

    In 6 months of having it, I've only recived 4, mailings, ALL from Hotmail.

    Has anyone sent you an E-Card? That dose the trick.
    Once that address is out there, there's no going back.

    Best bet is to sign up for a new name...

    Microsoft does not sell your e-mail addresses, they give them away to other companies. That way you have a reason to buy Microsoft products that block junkmail. Basically Microsoft provides the junkmail and the junkmail solution so they can make more money.

    What do you expect for a free Hotmail account? Especially from Microsoft.
