If you used a software mailclient (outlook, thunderbird, etc) to get your hotmail emails, yes you could. If you used another webmail like GMail, you also could. You could even create yourself a GMail account and poll your hotmail messages in it. then you could filter everything as you wish.

I don't like GMail for forum type emails, because it "threads" them all together when I want to see them separately so I can open each new thread in a tab quickly and easily.
Yahoo mail is the only one I've found so far with enough features and the proper design.

Still use mine, mainly because I've had it for years and I'm too lazy to switch everything over to my POP3 account.

OR
Switch to gmail.
Or even better, do both. |

I saw someone sorting their mail in Hotmail just today, so it can be done, but seeing that I avoid using Hotmail at all costs in favour of Gmail (I have my Gmail sent to Outlook, so I can access it from my desktop, but I use Gmail anywhere outside of home and it's just as good).
