here is what they told me...
Hi Justin,
Thank you for contacting Windows Live Messenger Technical Support. My name
is Dave and I'll be glad to assist you with your concern.
Based on the information I received, I understand that you still haven't
been able to verify your email address (e-mail address removed) with Windows
Live Messenger. I also understand that you've disabled your spam filters
through Comcast's application but still have not received the verification
e-mail. I know the importance of this issue is to you. Please know that I
will do my best to resolve your concern.
Justin, you will need to register your account for a Microsoft Network
Passport credential to use your email name as your sign in (EASI).
Just to give you a heads up, an Email As Sign In (EASI) account is a Windows
Live ID that is created by using an e-mail address that is not part of
Windows Live or MSN (this means no @msn or @hotmail address). For example,
you can create a Windows Live ID by using an e-mail address from one of the
following domains:
- yahoo.com
- gmail.com
When you create an EASI Windows Live ID, you must confirm that you own the
account that you used to create it with. You will receive a Windows Live
validation e-mail message at the e-mail address that you used to create the
EASI Windows Live ID.
To register, here are simple steps that you should follow:
1. Visit
http://login.live.com
2. Click "Sign-up."
3. Click "Yes use my e-mail address," and then click "Continue."
my email address is already being used.
4. Complete all the fields, and then click "Continue."
5. Retype the e-mail address in the "Review and sign the Agreements" section
on page 7.
6. Click "Accept."
7. Click "Continue" to sign in to the Microsoft Passport Network.
If you have performed the steps above, please sign up your account for you
to be provisioned to use Windows Live Messenger. Please follow these steps:
1. Go to
http://ideas.live.com
there is no Windows Live Messenger link
2. Click on the Sign Up link under Windows Live Messenger.
3. Accept the Terms and Conditions and get automatically signed up for
Windows Live Messenger.
I hope these steps resolve your concern with Windows Live Messenger. If you
