Wtf?
I didn't say that  In fact, they even acknowledge it's a system glitch on their website:

WTF!! is not a system glitch, do you think the web masters of messengeradictos would give false information
well, as long as it's not official I don't believe it will last long.
Besides, everyone can give false information or make a mistake  .

RE: Hotmail increases 2 GB!!!!!
It is probably a dody system glitch 
But yeah i saw this on neowin, Hotmail will probably pull out 1Gb storage.... or at least keep raising it to try to get to Gmail's level... ![[Image: maniacsig0pb.jpg]](http://img272.echo.cx/img272/6024/maniacsig0pb.jpg)

Just logged into Hotmail to find out its look had changed a bit again. What striked me most was the absence of the ever there red "99% bar" alerting my maximum storage was about to be reached. That could mean only one thing: yes, MSN is finally expanding the inbox size of both free and paid email accounts to 250mb and 2gb. With Google's Gmail gigabyte feature, it was only about time MSN made the same move to keep its current huge userbase. Email accounts are not being upgraded simultaneously, so it's perfectly possible you will have to wait a couple of days before you can enjoy your giant inbox.
I found a rather stupid email from MSN Hotmail Member Services in my inbox today as well, claiming I was about to reach my maximum storage of 2 gigabyte and urgent action was required. With only 9,5mb of used space, I'm taking this communcation was a small error and they meant to send out a proud announcement instead.
UPDATE: According to zeebaf on the Neowin Forums, you can get a 2000mb MSN/Hotmail Account for free like this:
- If you are using Windows XP SP1 run your MSN Explorer 7.02 and signup for new account.
- If you do NOT have Windows XP SP1 installed then download MSN Explorer 7.02 here and signup for new account.
According to follow-up forum posts this trick seems to work for most people, but keep in mind that this is a system glitch and MSN might correct it and downsize your account again later. Oh well, in that case you'll still have a good 250mb.
UPDATE 2: Hotmail is forcing spam filters into elaborate mode. I always used "low" because I never trusted the thing, but I just logged in only to find out it was set to a more stronger setting.

RE: Hotmail increases 2 GB!!!!!
Of course it's a glitch! Why would they give 2gb when you sign up with explorer but just 250mb with explorer and everything else? Of, by the way, I've done it and I finally have enough space to not have to delete everything every week.

RE: Hotmail increases 2 GB!!!!!
I wonder how long it will take for them to fix the MSN 7 problem Probably not long if done already but its probably not worth their while to reduce all the accounts created... but who knows the probably will  Reisyboy: He is the priest to guide us from evil.. which isn’t working… so we call him Frier Tuck |
