Well it is clear Microsoft does on-sell your details despite their claims and explicit policy otherwise.
Well, it is not that clear. Actually spammers could just guess your mailbox address. Last time I've checked it was possible to verify if any mailbox exist on hotmail.com using fake mail post technique (combination of MAIL FROM and RCPT TO commands). I've heard about spammers who do scan hotmail for existing mailboxes. Don't get me wrong. I don't like M$ but I think it just stupid for them to sell your info to spammers. It hearts their image without earning too much money.
