    There are alot of other free alternatives.. for example:

    - myownemail.com works fine if you want a webbased interface.
    - hotpop.com works fine if you want to access it with pop3

    Even if hotmail wasnt owned by MS I wouldnt use it coz it sucks SO much..
    it used to be good once, but when MS bought it it been worse every day.
