Re: How to report Spam email messages in Hotmail
To identify a sender of unwanted e-mail messages and report that sender to MSN Hotmail follow these steps:-

* Sign in to the Windows Live Hotmail Web site by using your Windows Live ID.
* On the left side of the screen, click Mail.
* In the folder list, click Inbox.
* Right-click the message in the message list, and then click View source.
* Select the contents of the message.
* Right-click the selected text, and then click Copy.
* Compose a new e-mail message, and then address the message to report_spam@hotmail.com.
* Click in the body of the new message, and then press CTRL+V. Then, click Send.


If the sender is not an Hotmail user than use abuse@domainname.com instead of report_spam@hotmail.com. Thats it !!
