Password to?
If you mean the code to register an agent on uplink,
then no they won't agree.

You can't use hotmail as a website.

Even if someone changes the password there is a second e-mail to get the password back to what it was.

So if I get this straight:

You can change the password of one email adress with another?

So if you log in to intel@inside.nl you can change the password of idiot@oudside.nl???

Well, I never heard of that 8)

Than what if you are a kind of guy who can do that, what would you do if the second email password has also been changed?? Creat another, third, email adress??

are you crazy everytime that you create a hotmail you also create an alternative hotmail and a password for it in case you forget your password and your secret sentence. they give you instructions to change the password.

Yeah, but:

1. You can change more than only password, what about changing the alternative mail adress?

2. No, I'm not crazy.

some email ask you to enter another email addresses during sign up. so if someone steals your password, you can tell the server to send the password to your secondary inbox. if someone finds out your second email and steals that password, then you can tell the server to send the password to your third inbox. if someone finds out your third email and steals that password, then you can tell the server to send the password to your fourth inbox :lol:

Dude, why not just use a free webhost instead?!

I don't know about others, but I'm not going to specifically log on to an email account to check for updates. WAY too inconvenient.
