u can try cashette (www.cashette.com) which is a free service that blocks any mail unless it is on your approved list and (im not sure how it works) but its supposed to be able to cover multiple accounts of your choice. also thers an option to send you "paid mail" which is spam but they pay you to read it.

hotmail lets you block contacts. its probably hidden in an options menu somewhere. It'll say something like 'email filters' i'd guess. have a play around - it is deffinately possible through hotmail though.
