No newsgroup that I know of. Once you log in to Hotmail go to the on
line help. As far as I can tell, all MS did was change the way it
looks, it still has the same functions.

There is a Spanish language Hotmail newsgroup on
msnews.microsoft.com

I use Outlook Express to read my Hotmail. I have it set to
only download the headers. I then can delete unwanted email
without even wasting time downloading the body of the
message. This also protects me from any virus that might be
in those emails.

I use the Hotmail.com webpage once a month or so, just to
check the options and settings. I have my "public" Hotmail
accounts set to automatically filter junk mail on the
highest setting and to just send it to the deleted items
folder. I never see all that mail. I did this when SWEN
started sending dozens of 156 KB emails daily. All were
going into junk/bulk mail but in those folders were still
counting towards the 2 MB space allowed.

Hotmail help is pretty good and they have FAQs too.
