I like the sound of this as I have never used hotmail.

It sounds a lot simpler and cleaner.

Will it still be full of spammers, whilst losing legitimate incoming emails?

It will still have to to allow @hotmail accounts, due to the billions of people that already have them, so I don't see how that could combat spammers.

Get a domain, a host that supports greylisting and set up Sender Policy Framework, most of my spam problem has disappeared since.

I've set mine up last night and linked my hotmail account. My main concern it the hotmail address. I use mine for masses of things, hell I'll even pay to keep it if I have to, it's far too valuable to me after what must be over 10 years.

SPF is about as useful as a chocolate fireguard. Greylisting is of some merit, but is an inconvenience at other times. DNSBL and Spamassassin are also useful tools.

I find the Gmail spam detection system pretty effective.

Greylisting can slow down mail delivery but I'd rather have that then spam (and I don't mean the tinned kind which isn't bad at all) personally.

SPF's effectiveness is likely to improve if adoption increases and its got to start somewhere
