almost 20 span emails per day that i send to sweep. But they all seem to come back to me the next day or so. Hotmail needs to address this issue or let the recipient know .100 spam email in three days

messages + account hijacks which have almost stopped these days.

Bravo!more grease to your elbows all those involved in this crime

battle, continue with your good works.

Apple, really?

They won't do anything like this unless they figure out a way to profit from it.

I agree with Tom Hanlon. I'm getting more spam than ever. Today there were 117 spam messages delivered to my junk folder just over the weekend! And many are from the same sites I blocked/deleted days ago. Hooray you're keeping junk out of our junk folders - NOT!

I think it is awesome that MS is doing this. I notice that MS does not seem to get a lot of press related to this - or it's role seems minimalized. I think this effort and the successful MS DCU efforts against the spammers was really awesome also. There should have been a collective cheer when those major ops went down and the amount of spam traveling throughout the WWW went down, at least for a while. It is big step in the right direction. BTW, is Google doing this? Apple?
