> and most certainly wouldnt touch hotmail again with a 20 meter pole. While this is off topic to this list, there was an article a few years ago in information week (IIRC) that had an interview with a Microsoft employee that was making $50,000US a year selling e-mail lists to various spammers in his own time, he worked maybe one or two hours a week at it. I would assume that this is the reason why MSN and Hotmail receive so much spam and not because of any software fault.
It is also exceedingly difficult to block _all_ spam at the server level while at the same time allowing the e-mails that you actually want to read through to the inbox, for being a public list, I would say that the maintainers of the server hosting this list have done a remarkable job at keeping it spam free.
