By far the most scam and solicitation e-mails I recieve is seemingly from my friends who have Hotmail accounts. I have to 'assume' that Hotmail is the easiest to hack, or spoof, or otherwise make these scam e-mails seem to be comming to me from a friend. I have very rarely recieved any from friends with any other e-mail accounts. Therefore, I suggest you delete your Hotmail e-mail account and choose another provider, even knowing how emotionally difficult it is to give up an e-mail account that you have been known by for years!
