Hotmail.com is the one of the predominant email portals that people have been using. There was a period went people went crazy using Hotmail addresses because of the advanced features they offered. However, the creation of new hotmail.com login (https://hotmail-loginx.com/hotmail-com-login-sign-up/) account has come to halt for certain reasons.
