    To identify a sender of unwanted e-mail messages and report that sender to MSN Hotmail follow these steps:-

    • Sign in to the Windows Live Hotmail Web site by using your Windows Live ID.
    • On the left side of the screen, click Mail.
    • In the folder list, click Inbox.
    • Right-click the message in the message list, and then click View source.
    • Select the contents of the message.
    • Right-click the selected text, and then click Copy.
    • Compose a new e-mail message, and then address the message to report_spam@hotmail.com.
    • Click in the body of the new message, and then press CTRL+V. Then, click Send.


    If the sender is not an Hotmail user than use abuse@domainname.com instead of report_spam@hotmail.com. Thats it !!
