Hotmail e-mail account support ending
« on: August 25, 2013, 12:46:07 PM »
Member Advisory

For some time Amiga.org has not allowed new memberships with Hotmail e-mail accounts to cut down on spammers. Unfortunately some older Hotmail accounts still manage to spam the site on occasion. So to better serve the Amiga.org community we will also be phasing out Hotmail support on all accounts old and new. If you use Amiga.org and resistered with a Hotmail e-mail address please update your account with your new G-mail account information or other modern or ISP e-mail account information. The complete elimination of Hotmail accounts will be a 6-12 month process to give everyone plenty of time to migrate off Hotmail. Most members have more than one e-mail account in 2013 already.

Keep in mind if you use a @outlook or @msn these are developing into spammer havons too and Amiga.org may remove support for them as well. Currently no date it set for their elimination. If Hotmail support is important to you and it's the only thing you use and love please give us a "Proof of Life" as to why support should be maintained.

For the best and easiest solution Amiga.org recommends Gmail but you can use any e-mail service that is not Hotmail.

@Duce

You might be right about that.
