Ridding myself of Hotmail

Today is the day when I can finally rid myself of 99% of my old Windows Live ID, and old Windows Live Hotmail account. The other 1%, unfortunately, is taken up by the fact that I can’t yet change the Windows Live ID associated with my Gamertag.
Till M$ get off their asses and allow people to change it, I’m stuck with it.

Anyway, one thing that I had to do before dumping my old Windows Live ID is downloading all the old e-mails from it. Kinda hard when there’s no “export” button.

11:53pm - 2 Thunderbird extensions later, and the e-mail is starting to download. 1625 messages to go.
Holy fuck.
00:03am - 693 done…… Although right now it’s going back WAY into the depths…..
00:09am - 1031…. At least we’ve broken into 4 figures.
00:20am - Finally, all 1625 e-mails downloaded.

Now to sort out which ones are supposed to be in my DCU e-mail account……
