Cross platform development testing complete, with a result number of issues
issues discovered:

1. Hotmail system will not allow users to successfully register, First
verification email will not arrive to any destination with a hotmail.com
Domain email account.
in the rare case that a member will select, "forgot my password", then an
email in some cases will arrive into the users Junk mail folder at homtail.
During a critical formation period, Hotmail is potentially damaging sportkin
from allowing people to discover their full potential, as this is what
sportkin is designed to do.
Although approx 280 people have registered on sportkin, the number of
members that have profiles displayed online are less than 130.

That's an issue for Sportkin to take up with Windows Live Postmaster, not
here.

The member will need to adjust his Junk Mail filters.
