Windows Forum / Outlook Express / OE 6.x / April 2004OE and Hotmail email sending failure
Anyone know if Hotmail have probs at the moment? Last night I sent three emails (from Outlook Express to Hotmail), all to correct address's, and none appear to have reached their destination. I had my suspicions of issues last night so I also sent the same emails from Hotmails web browser interface and those arrived at their recipients. There has been no changes at either my home or work PC's but the Hotmail send from OE seems to have quit working? Both systems have been working fine for ages and I'm nowhere near my Hotmail space limit. In order to test I have just sent a mail to myself at my work address and its not appeared either..... Anyone else getting this?

I've recently witnessed delays of up to 12 hours (outward- and inward-bound) with Hotmail-in-OE messages, Steve. Dunno why. (Mind that you're not using the same server when you're sending from the online page).

Do not send email http://www.fjsmjs.com Protect your PC http://www.microsoft.com/security/protect/ I have messages over 24 hours old that still have not been delivered........no change in my outlook setup that worked fine on Monday....I hope (?) it's a system problem but there is not much traffic on this..... >-----Original Message----- >I've recently witnessed delays of up to 12 hours (outward- and inward-bound) [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > >. I am also experiencing the same problem. The last email successfully sent from Outlook Express was on 4/27/2004 at 9:20PM EST... like the original poster I tried the Web interface and the emails arrived almost immediately. Surely 48 hours is long enough of a delay to indicate a problem other than just email volume. > Anyone know if Hotmail have probs at the moment? > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Regards > I am also experiencing the same problem.
