Hotmail Mailbox (lack of) Size Explained
OK, Hotmail changed their log-in screen to provide an explanation as to why new mailboxes are now large while my old existing account remains at a measly 2MB.
As the log-in screen goes:
250MB inbox available only in the 50 United States, District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
And since I’m not from the US, from DC, or from Puerto Rico (nice board game, though), I can stay with the old small mailbox while new users get big mailboxes.
I was also under the impression that Washington, DC, was kind of located, well, inside the US… So the separate listing may be very PC, but does not serve any other purpose. Oh, well.
An effectively international service using
an upgrade policy that depends on geographical location strikes me as odd.
Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t get it.
