Hmmmm...
I tried it with a friend's account and it worked...
No emails were deleted...

I will also try it with my account...
Wish me good luck....

Edit: What if my account gets deleted after a few days? :O

Sorry, yes it was a typo. NO EMAIL IS DELETED.

Why? Because you went to Spain, and wanna have it as your location, then you realize you didn't want your email account anymore, so you closed it. You remember you have some important mails, and you were "in love" with that email, so you activated again and thought you should leave your deafult location? No you are not violation any rules.

i think you didn't quite realise that your account is not deleted (as well as the inbox mails and messenger contacts) immediatly. yet, when you cancel your account it gets queued on some schedule for deletion. so only if you are terribly unlucky and suspend your account some seconds before "the daily hotmail database accounts refresh", you won't have any problem. if you just suspend it and then reactivate it, you won't have any problem.
and it worked just fine for me ;)
