Rename/Merge a Hotmail and a Outlook Account

Anonymous

I want to rename/merge an account. I have an old hotmail account I want to merge with an existing one, that I created using the new outlook address. I didnt find the rename option in hotmail, untill after I created the new account. I want to merge these two, so that my current hotmail will be a alias, and my skydrive storage will become my outlook skydrive, with the same storage. Please help.

When someone sends a message to the old address, do they get a non-delivery report?

Has there been any discussion of what the problem is. I still can not access my old hotmail address, it should have became a alias folder in my new inbox. I dont even get the emails to my current inbox. The address is in limbo...can not log in either.

A Hotmail support person will have to address that. They should see this thread.

The problem is, I dont even receive the emails for the hotmail address. They are not going to my outlook. Yet I can not log into my hotmail as a separate account.
