I have hotmail but have not been aware of any increase or over load of spam but when I do get any I can block the sender and sooner or later they tire of altering their address to gain access and go away. It could be your settings or if you've got a webpage with your hotmail address on it. They usually find your account via an online source where you've posted your address.

Can anyone tell me how I can find a free email service that will allow me to post my gigs to a mailing list of local, musically supportive folks? I can only send info to a handful at a time with hotmail. Is there a service that will let me post to evryone at once? It would make this already difficult task so much easier.

Thanks, too much to do and not enough time to do it
