  Microsoft limits Hotmail e-mail to deter spam
Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: Forbes.com | Posted By: Todd Richardson

Microsoft Corp. has cracked down on e-mail spam by limiting the number of e-mails users can send from its free MSN Hotmail account, the world's largest software company said on Monday. Internet spammers sending mass e-mail advertisements -- ranging from get-rich-quick schemes to instant loans to sex toys and online pornography -- often use free e-mail accounts at Web-based e-mail services such as Hotmail to send their messages.

To limit such activity, Microsoft earlier this month initiated a rule that free e-mail users won't be able to send to more than 100 e-mail addresses in a 24-hour period, Microsoft MSN's lead product manager Lisa Gurry said.
