There are several web sites that don't allow hot mail... Why don't you email the site and ask them?

To prevent spammers from invading

[Graybeard]

Likely they are just behind the times. These days spammers are not using hotmail tho it used to be used by them heavily. These days spammers are using g-mail heavily and the various mai.ru addresses and anyone using gaweb is absolutely a spammer everytime.

Still an amazing number are coming in on comcast and of the standard American ISPs it seems to have more spammers than all the rest combined. Country of origin tho is a far better indicator of whether they are spammers. Any and all from China and India are spammers at a site like this. Germany, Sweden, Denmark Russia, Ukraine and the Philipines almost always are spammers as well.

But these days a hotmail address almost always means a safe real world user not a spammer.

hotmail used to a haven for spammers but it has been cleaned up a lot.... it's a good way of avoiding spam actually

I find that if I send an e-mail explaining why I use hotmail I get a respectful response.
