In my experience Hotmail and Iwon mail and other webmail systems don't
like anonymizers such as Safeweb. I can't get them to work at all. I
can't log into my account, create a new account, or anything. They just
don't work.
As for secure email, well, I KNOW for a fact that hotmail and Iwon are
not secure, they don't use SSL or anything like that. So if you want to
have secure email send/recieve while also being anonymouse, I would
suggest that you don't use webmail.
