P.S.: Sugar it’s department, not compartment - or is it a nasty innuendo?

I keep my hotmail address since I was 16, for sentimental reasons. It’s the only provider that manages to keep all spam in the inbox and move all useful e-mails in the spam folder!!
And yes, thank you, I always have to spend 5-10 second trying to find the bloody download icon. It’s so annoying. And that 2MB? LOLOL!
The thing is that Microsoft didn’t care about hotmail when it acquired it and still doesn’t give a damn (who remembers that hotmail did not initialy belong to Microsoft, but it was bought by M$ in order to fight AOL?). They just got a huge base of user e-mails and data and this counts a lot more than the money they spend. Think about it.
Microsoft doesn’t make any money from the crappy ads they sell, nor do they test any new technology (like gmail). It’s obvious why they keep it running. It’s all about brand name, customer loyalty and huge databases of e-mails.
Bloody capitalist system!! (sorry, I got way off track…)

Believe it or not, my first e-mail address was a Yahoo! one, somewhere back at 17. My hotmail address was a proposition of an ex-boyfriend when I was 18.

I keep both addresses due to sentimental reasons, obviously.But Hotmail drives me mad anyway

don’t ask sorry: I have also one of two mails which I used them only for registrations (not important’s ones) in several sites.

but I do have nice memories of hotmail too! I had my first hotmsil mail when I was 18 and I was really felt bad when I moved to yahoo (some years later) and didn’t know that if you don’t access your hotmail account for a while, they delete it! Some mails from there was so sweet history for me… but life go on…

@ Dr.Me : I know that my assumptions were based on studies concerning naive users, and they don’t quite apply in users that visit repeatedly a service, that’s true. But that’s no excuse for Hotmail to hide important assets of the site! And yes, the download menu option is a curse…

@ Tommy : I’m still using Hotmail, it’s true, it’s the e-mail I automatically insert when some site I don’t really care about asks for registration. Sorry! Hotmail is just one of my e-mails, with two Gmails and Yahoo! following.

No, sorry, with two Gmails and Yahoo! leading.

I don’t believe that you are still using Hotmail!

I know most people have an e-mail there because they are using the messenger but a few know that you can create a sign up password (for msn) using a different e-mail (even yahoo!).

why, you can’t go in another e-mail service? that’s the most easiest these days!

Polla filia!
