Email is email, whether you use Outlook or Webmail. Webmail is just a
different way of sending/receiving. It all still works basically the same
way.
1. No, its AOL email and AOL is notorious for blocking incoming email they
deem "spam".
2. No.
3. No.
PS: ALL email addresses have an @ in them. The guy probably doesn't know
his email address. Ask him what his MSN username is and then stick an
@msn.com on the end. That's probably a decent guess as to what his email
address is. Another option would be to have him send you an email. Then
you could simply reply to his email (and you'd also then get to see what it
is).
