    Well I'm happy with the 250. Best thing Microsoft has done in a long time. I've even started running Hotmail through Outlook since I am starting to accumulate my emails as opposed to going through and deleting old ones daily. Outlook just helps me manage them and find the emails I need more quickly.

    I think it's very unfair that -unlike Yahoo! mail- the junk we get in Hotmail counts toward our mailbox storage quota.

    I don't know if it has been the same for you, but since Hotmail upgraded the mail interface I have been receiving MUCH less junk mail. Now I only get 9-10 SPAM emails go to the Junk mail folder and about 1-2 slip through to my Inbox (per week).

    Well if you're getting less junk , SupaStar, that's good news, but I still don't understand why the filtered spam (which is sometimes as big as 300KB) is considered a part of my 2MB storage space. But that shouldn't be a problem after I get the 250MB

    Welcome to TZ, Silver-Fox We're very happy to have you here with us.
    Most of us have Gmail accounts as well, but probably don't want to change the addresses due to the trouble involved I guess.

    Gmail seems to be the way to go. Especially with the ability to use your Gmail account as an online file storage system.. Hotmail has perks. I use it and it works flawlessly with Outlook. If I had 250Mb of storage I'd be happier. Maybe they might upgrade freely in the future for all??

    I'm sure it's in the works.

    Still 2MB for me. Damn, my email starts with an 'r'. If it's done in alphabetical order I guess i'll still have to wait for it.

    would you store music on google? Is it ok? I only have 20 GB of music but it takes up space I hardly listen to anyway.
