hotmail.CO.UK
 

Head over to Hotmail

Enter anything@hotmail.co.uk (this will not be your email address yet) and any password, click "Sign in"

Click "Register with .NET Passport" on the login failiure page

Complete the form and you have yourself a nice new hotmail.co.uk address

You can also do this with other country specific domains such as hotmail.co.jp


Just got this from another board, and I don't think its yet been 'officially' launched. So grab the names you want before someone else does ;)

Re: hotmail.CO.UK
 

oh great now that means more wrongly sent email. I get so much garbage in yahoo because some numpties dont understand the significance of knowing the domain name on the email address

Re: hotmail.CO.UK

I dont get it, may be I woke up too early this morning.

Re: hotmail.CO.UK
 

YES - I GOT MY NAME ON A HOTMAIL ACCOUNT - Whoopie!

EDIT~: Ah - anyone know how i can access it via POP3? New accounts are banned from POP3 Access.

Re: hotmail.CO.UK
 

this brings back memories of earlier in the year when microsoft forgot to renew the hotmail.co.uk domain and someone else registered it

hope that doesnt happen again... a lot of unhappy hotmail uk customers :s
