Post Hotmail's (free) inbox now 250MB

...about time too...

I know there's bound to be better out there but I can't be bothered changing so it's come as welcome releif I don't have to keep sifting through my old stuff wondering what I have to delete to free space up.

...although it would help if the junk mail filter was a bit more effective.

I very much doubt they did that. Hotmail is my only spam free email address, and I've had the current address since '98.

My Gmail account gets more spam, but I'll be using that more often as they're enabling POP mail and Hotmail are taking it away.

No spam on my Hotmail either.

If I'd realised Gmail were allowing POP access earlier, I'd have saved the £15 subscription for my Hotmail upgrade!!!!!

The only spam I get in my hotmail is from sites I've signed up to myself.........

Unlike Yahoo takes the p!ss, though somewhat improved since they went from 6mb to 100mb inbox with the junk mail filter, still not up to hotmail though.............
