Hope someone can help me with this. I had a hotmail account and there was a person that I wished to no longer have contact with. (Long story) I sent this person a farewell email from my hotmail account. After I sent it, I immediately closed out my account. Thinking that if this person sent me anymore emails, they would be returned to him as undeliverable. I then opened a new hotmail account with a totally different email address. Not an hour later, I received a reply in my new account from this person. HOW did this happen???

I would seriously have your computer checked by someone who knows about computers because the long story person may have installed spyware on your computer that allows that person to know things about you like your new name.
Okay stop being alarmed, I just checked into the other theory and MSN does in fact have a directory. I haven't figured out how to search it yet, but it is there. Try closing your new account and open one in which you don't use your name, city etc.

i believe hotmail has a kinda phone directory that if you allow it- people can search for you.
