    On the right hand side of the HotMail screen click on Options, then under Junk e-mail click on "Filters and reporting" change your fiter settings accordingly...

    I maintain two hotmail addresses, both I've had for several years. One's exclusively for signing up for things where I suspect they'll spam me or sell/share my address and I still only have to deal with three or four unwanted pieces of mail a week.

    Hi,

    I once registered for Hotmail to take it for a test drive. Three days later when I went to use it for the very first time, I already had lots of SPAM in my in box. I realized the Microsoft had provided my new email address to spammers, although they probably consider them partners. That ws enough for me. I never used Hotmail and opted for Yahoo Mail.
