How to Register @live.* / @hotmail.* / @outlook.* e-mail Address

Microsoft launched Windows Live Hotmail in 2007, and they were offering many domains ranging from @live.*, @hotmail.* to @windowslive.com. In 2012, Microsoft also introduce @.outlook.* domain.

If you find out that your favorite IDs were taken out in popular e-mail service such as @yahoo.com or @gmail.com, here is your chance to claim it from Windows Live & Outlook. They are plenty of domains to choose from.

Another good news is that, if someone already used your favourite ID at @hotmail.com, for example, you can still use the same ID with other domains.

You can find the link to register the email in the link below. These links are not shown at Windows Live webpage. The links specially redirect you to applicable sign-up page for your preferred domain.

Select your preferred domain & click on the registration link. If the link does not work, kindly clear up your browser caches & cookies. Retry and it should be working.

In fact it is not limited to only hotmail, but to all free email service provided by Microsoft including live mail, msn mail, outlook.com email and even Live Domain.

To ensure it work, correct SMTP Server details are required.
