When I was graduating college 15 years ago, I wanted to create a professional firstname.lastname email. Outlook.com was starting to get traction and Hotmail was getting phased out, but I was advised to create my professional email under Hotmail.com because it would seem 'more professional'.

My main email is still the 007 related gmail I created first.

I jumped in on Outlook when it was starting up and got fristname.lastname@outlook.com. I still have a Hotmail account though
