I'm not sure if the options are different in free vs. paid accounts (mine is paid), but my options screen includes a checkbox to "Keep a copy of forwarded messages in your Windows Live Hotmail inbox". See screenshot:

More thoughts along these lines from my blog: (June '06) & (July '06), and from a Softie named Stephen Broadwell.
Enjoy!

Although I've seen mention that the initial private beta included some sort of invite mechanism, I'm not seeing anything referring to that in the current Connect site. It would've been an interesting angle for the team to take though instead of the free-for-all signup/waiting list that they're using now.
Anyways, I've got my Home Server set up and have posted some initial impressions here:

I'm "In". I ordered a new box to run the bits on, and UPS says it should be delivered today. I'll try to post some impressions later in the week.

Maybe? I don't have a masters in physics, but I'll offer some speculation. If the magnetic substrate is conductive, you may end up with an affect similar to what happens to a CD in a microwave {http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3587466534692702285}
(try at your own risk, and make sure you put a glass of water in there if you don't want to fry your microwave, and stop before it burns, unlike the folks that made that google video).
Now whether it would magnetically wipe the data is another question, but a strong EMP could cook all of the IC's in the hard drive, making it useless anyways. -
I'm not in the know, but I'm still hoping it's something like this.

I wrote a bit about this here:
http://onemanshouting.com/tech/ShouldMicrosoftOfferWindowsStarterEditionEverywhere.aspx
"Ed Bott thinks that Microsoft "should sell Windows XP Starter Edition everywhere" in order to help alleviate the problem of Windows 98 & ME going out of support.I think they should take it one step further and give it away. Include an automated, credit card purchased, upgrade to XP Home edition for a reasonable fee (With an option to have a CD mailed for folks on dialup) . By giving Starter Edition away, you help out the security of the internet, you allow people on limited incomes to use your products, and you give the "free software" people something to chew on. Microsoft has always provided deep discounts to college students, in a "get em hooked" kind of marketing scheme. Giving away Starter Edition would provide the same benefit in the general population, it would offer some insulation against the free software movement, and it would be good PR."
And Stephen Broadwell (He's a MSFT guy, but not in the Windows group) wrote a bit of a reply at the end of this post:

You think the fact that we're all hammering the F5 keys and trying to watch more webcasts might be part of the problem?
