Guest Dan C Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 How to get an msn.com account. Go to http://hotmail.com. At the .NET Passport Sign-in box, enter anything for the email address, but make sure you add @msn.com and enter anything for the password. You should just get an sign in error. Click on Register with .NET Passport, if you haven't already. Now when the sign up page has loaded up, you should see [username box]@msn.com Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/193061-a-new-2gb-mailmsn/page/4/#findComment-2529719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappy Veteran Posted July 21, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2004 I did everything that you said and wooo i have 2 gig but it took like 1 hour for me to sign in after i signed up :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/193061-a-new-2gb-mailmsn/page/4/#findComment-2529745 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here comes 2GB. This is sad though you got to admit, iv got gmail (1gb) my ISP which just upgraded there email service to 2gb, thanks to gmail, and now Hotmail, with 2gb, this is crazy. :laugh: . Now what would be nice if there was a way to integrate all those email accounts in one :rofl: and not have to worry about low attachment limits... But thats all but a dream :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/193061-a-new-2gb-mailmsn/page/4/#findComment-2529746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambooo Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Just got my 2gigs :woot: :woot: :woot: Just to the people that have never used an @msn account before: Every @msn account registered is a valid hotmail account as is a fully operational .net passport. They operate near identically to a hotmail account with minor exceptions. You DO NOT need MSN Explorer to use it, just to open an account (Edit: or using the above method).

FM Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Hate to break it to you little noobs, but you're not gonna have those for long. Those 2GB accounts are for the REAL MSN Premium Subscribers (aka me) and they will check them. If they find out you're not a MSN Premium member, I'm sure they'll take the accounts. Seeing as you're basically stealing something everyone else pays for...

Eli Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Right now I would usually be scrambling for this email opertunity. The only problem I have is that I would have too many email accounts and too much space. When I heard about Spymac I got one of those. When I heard about Gmail I got one of those. I have my hotmail for MSN and an email located at The World's Longest Email (which I cannot post a link too because it's too long it seems. just type the full alphabit twice and then do it a third time up to the letter 'k' and put .com) So congrats to those who found it and to those whoa re going to use it. I hope they upload the new space for HOTMAIL accounts soon.

FM Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 @o83zero, how you know they will check Maybe because those 2GB Accounts are only for the people paying Microsoft MONEY either for MSN Premium or Hotmail Plus? We all know how much MS likes money...you really think they won't check? Not to mention (again), what everyone is doing here is basically stealing. If you actually think MS won't make sure all their cash is coming in, then you're dead wrong :rolleyes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/193061-a-new-2gb-mailmsn/page/4/#findComment-2529782 Share on other sites More sharing options...
