Kurt, Why not use Mailinator.com you simply say your email address is <anything>@mailinator.com and then go onto mailinator, key in your <anything> as the username and the emails sent to it can be viewed and deleted. The system holds emails for 7 days (I think) unless you delete them first and also there are loads of alternate addresses you can use other tthan Mailinator.com.
What are you using to access your Hotmail? Phones will usually use Push and PC's normally pull email but I'm not sure Hotmail still has Pop3 access. If you are using a browser to access Hotmail then you shouldn't have to do anything other than refres the page. My guess is that the people who you sent the hotmail address to won't accept it as being legitimate. Lots of companies will not accept Hotmail addresses.

Hey folks, Hopefully this is a Quick one. I use Hotmail, but almost never access it - and I do what I have heard others on this list do - use it as a Junk Mail address - like signing up for some kind of free Net services or a trial service. I did one, and it claims to have sent me a msg to my Hotmail - but, I don't see it - not even in Junk. Was figuring I just needed to try "Pulling" the e-mail - like forcing it to Receive/Retrieve msgs. But, unlike Outlook & Thunderbird - I can't seem to find this "Pull" function. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
