Microsoft rolled out an improvement to their popular web email service today. At least it got to me today.

It looks much nicer. And has separate mail and web search bars.

Still, SPAMERS love Hotmail because the free service only allows you to put 250 friends on your safe list. And their SPAM protection is the worst of the major players. By far.

The new look site does not work on Opera for Mac.

AND, of course, they still won’t let me flee to a better service like Gmail or Yahoo. Because your old mail cannot be forwarded in the free service to another.

I’m still in Hotmail prison.

My preferred contact is RickMcCharles AT Gmail.com.

I check that address first each day.
