Confirmed. My Live account that I use for xbox live is my gmail account. I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to login to outlook.com with my gmail address. However I am concerned about the ability to send email from outlook.com that is sent as the name of another provider.
- darklajid 14y agoIn general that'd be fine. The sender address can be easily spoofed anyway - smtp works that way. The thing is, this seems to be broken by design in my world. Google should (have to check that again) publish a record that lists 'official' mail servers for GMail. This whole setup could work just fine, even if it's a bit weird. But right now I suppose you look like a crappy imposter to any receiver AND you can never receive emails (they .. would end up in your GMail inbox of course).
- radnor 14y agoTry sending yourself an email. It will bounce back to that very same email address with a Delivery Status Notification from Hotmail's postmaster saying it couldn't be delivered.
