Adele,

I have a Yahoo account and when I started it, it had the option to UNtick
messages of that sort, the default being to accept them. If I wanted to get
them now, I could go to my user PROFILE and change that. I havent ever had a
hotmail account but maybe it is the same. Check out your profile there and
see if you can UNtick or maybe read one message and see if it tells you how
to UNsubscribe.
