I believe its ninety days before Hotmail wipes your account off of the servers.
I get both the 'FREE PORN!' plus I have won like a million trips, I can now work at home, and there is money waiting for me. :rolleyes:
Its rather annoying, but I have my Hotmail filters on to catch most of it.[/b]You are right, it is 90 days for permanent deletion.
**Copied from Hotmail FAQ's,
What does it mean when my account becomes "inactive"?
Currently, if you do not sign in to your MSN Hotmail account for 30 days, or if you do not sign in within the first 10 days, your account will become "inactive." Stored e-mail and addresses will be permanently deleted, and inbound e-mail will be refused. Your .NET Passport will still function, and your Hotmail e-mail name will be reserved. To reactivate your account, go to
http://www.hotmail.com and enter your sign-in name and password. You will then be able to send and receive e-mail using MSN Hotmail once again. If your account stays inactive for an additional 90 days, it will be permanently deleted.
