two accounts for messenger?

Can I have more than one account that I can use with messenger? If I can
how do I go about opening the new account?

Many thanks

Greetings Dave,

You can have as many accounts as you want. You can make a new one at http://www.hotmail.com
or http://register.passport.net.

Re: two accounts for messenger?

Hi Jonathan - a different Dave but with a query along the same lines!

I've recently registered with 'LinkedIn'. You may not be able to access this
page https://www.linkedin.com/secure/uplo...isplayWebMail=
but if you can you will see that the facility can check-out my contacts with
a number of webmail services, one of which is Hotmail.

However ............ a 'box' is available into which one may post one's
'moniker' but the Domain is 'fixed' as being @hotmail.COM

My question is: Are all bonio-fido accounts associated with Hotmail
nowadays '.COM'

Or is my 'BoaterDave at hotmail.co.uk' still a valid address?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi [other] Dave,

Nope, all domains are supported. @hotmail.co.uk is still valid.

Nowadays they're offering @live.co.uk.
