Hotmail account

[Genesis]

I'm not getting any mail through to my Hotmail account, apart from junk and occasionally mail from MSN/Windows Live itself. I know this is the case as I've been sending stuff from my ordinary email account to my Hotmail and it's not arriving, and other people have told me that they have been sending me mail. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Previously, I would send stuff and it would get through, but then several days later I would get 'failure of delivery' notices for all the mail I had sent, even though it had gone through. I don't even get 'failure of delivery' notices anymore!

Any ideas, please? Thank you.

Are you sure you are getting your address right? Are you putting hotmail.com instead of hotmail.co.uk for example?

Well I've had my account for 6 years squarebear, so I hope I know my address by now! :-)

Further investigation reveals that certain mail is getting through, after asking various contacts to try again, but other stuff still isn't. I'm wondering if there are some issues between Hotmail and other providers which is preventing mail getting through. I seem to remember Hotmail and AOL didn't like each other at one stage!

Have you tried contacting Hotmail / MSN themselves and asking why this might be happening?

I dont see why they would stop mail getting through to an AOL user, seeing as AOL are one of the biggest ISP companies in the world.

If i were you, i'd send them an email (from another account, maybe) and see what they say about it
