mein_hoon_na 0 Posted January 18, 2005 Hotmail Upgrade Login ur hotmail account and go to options. Go to "Personal" Click "My Profile" Change Country to "United States" Wait for browser to load United states settings. Change the state to "Florida" and zip code "33332" Click "update" Click "Continue" Go to "Language" and make sure its "English" Paste this link in the same browser. http://by17fd.bay17.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/Accountclose Wait until the Screen says you're Hotmail is Closed and ready to be deleted. Click "Close Account". Go back to login page and relogin to ur hotmail account..!! ( reactivate and click continue and resign hotmail ) Your account size will now increase to 25 MB which a mnth later becomes 250 mb. ( all your OLD mails will BE RETAINED ) Good Luck..!! PS.It worked, however i guess the Florida thing is simply a diversion because new hotmail accounts are given 250 by default now. So the trick is to actually "de-activate and re-activate the account" only ! Its Tried and tested and increased my mail account limit to 25mb at presant. EnJoy...
