415759 2005-12-26 03:15:00 or use a free email service where you won't get spammed to hell and that way you won't need extra space.

Seriously try other services, don't waste time with that spam infested spam collection service. Best thing I ever did was gave up Hotmail.

415762 2005-12-26 08:41:00 Gmail is the best. Lots of mailbox space too, 2.6Gb, and there is jack all spam too Prescott (11)
415763 2005-12-26 09:01:00 Or just get proper email instead of web based systems like Hotmail and GMail. ;) Personally I couldn't live without the combination of POP3, Horde and Spam Assassin. :) maccrazy (6741)

Hi, thanks for sharing the tips around. My 25MB Hotmail account eventually got upgraded to 250MB after almost 8 months of wait.

Cheers :)

415766 2005-12-26 09:42:00 Gmail reads your emails and builds databases about you. I regularly include the words "bomb", "america", "revenge", "jihad", "i'm a terrorist" and "praise allah" in my emails from Gmail to arouse suspicion.

The best way to go, however, is your own domain name and your own email server.
