I agree that the wording is a bit confusing. FWIW, all major webmail providers have their own secret sauce for determining what is spam vs what is not, so I don't think you'll get a straight answer wrt Hotmail treating message more harshly. However, they all want people to authentication their email, so I imagine the calculation goes the other way -- authenticate your email and make it easier for them to dispose of your email correctly.
