    Hotmail alias creation issues Please help :(

    I'm having an issue while trying to create hotmail.com aliases. Instead of there being a drop down thing to choose between outlook.com and hotmail.com, there is just outlook.com, no drop down thing at all.

    This is a major issue for me and I'd be more than happy to repay anybody that successfully helps me out.

    This should allow you to type in the suffix yourself -- hotmail.com should work good luck!

    Trinkets does allow you to type in @hotmail.com.

    I have the drop down menu, you probably need a US or Canadian IP to do it.

    Are you saying you want to change your @outlook.com to @hotmail.com ?

    If so that service is no longer available as they are 2 separate entities within the same server. e.g. Both, (you need an account to see links) and (you need an account to see links) can both exist at the same time, but they will be 2 different emails and will not be linked.

    It also works for other people that I've asked today, but not for me, and Im not sure why

    You could try creating a new email, then going to (you need an account to see links) and add it.

    The purpose of this for me is to reduce the incredibly tedious process of account making for unregs, this is why it is so important for it to work as I've described.

    I see. Try clicking on the top right corner where your name is. Go to account setting and see if you can add a new alias from there. It shows alias' in the left side bar.
