OK, I'll try this way (currently waiting for the greylisting delay of the "enable your account" mail Microsoft sent me). Still, I think we need a more long term solution. I expect that DDs working on Azure images will need to be able to test them, as random users. ... over a period potentially longer than 90 days :-P If you, or someone else at Microsoft, can bring this problem forward, advocating for free accounts for DDs maintaining, or even simply *testing*, those images, that would be nice.
