When I entered hotmail it prompted me for my security code.  There is an old email address as my lead alternate.   I don't use that anymore so enter the other alternate address I have listed in hotmail.  They send me a security code, I enter the code, doesn't match.  Done it 10 times over 3 days to my frustration. Not sure what else to do.  I have access to the account but not to security stuff.  Will try to reset the account in 30 days I guess.   But does anyone know why the 7 digit verification codes don't work?  I tried in private browsing, didn't help.   What a pain.

I have my primary Hotmail account, and a second e-mail (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***) that I use through Windows Live Mail. I have used both of these e-mail addresses without problems for several years. Recently my alternate e-mail will not send out e-mails. I get the error message below. Any suggestions?

I am having trouble recalling an email address as I quickly made it to sign up a secondary PSN account. I fear it may have been closed due to inactivity, but this will not be a problem anyway as all I need is the name.

Is it possible that I could somehow get a list of addresses that are associated to a alternate email address? So, mine being *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, would obviously link to other accounts that use it as its alternate address? I can verify I own the account.

I am pretty certain the one I've forgotten is along the lines of *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, but I just cannot seem to use it to access PSN, as all PSN accounts are linked to a email account, so all I need is the name to login.

Is that possible? Thanks!
I accessed my hotmail and was asked to send a security code to an alternate email address.  The email address offered to me no longer exists.  There is no option to send it to another email address and it says it will take 30 days to update my details with a new alternate address.  I am travelling overseas and cannot wait that long.  i depend on my hotmail account.  

How can I get the code sent elsewhere immediately?

If someone responds, where will I see the answer as I won't be able to access my hotmail the next time I log in?  Microsoft have presented me with a unique problem here and I really need it sorted so I will be able to access my mail.

Thanks for your help.
