I use Hotmail as my main e-mail, but for some reason this past week, I have had several people tell me that their e-mails are being returned. Anyone know how to solve this? I have checked my safe list and my block list, so that isn't the problem, but I don't know how to find a fix for it. Help!!!
TIA
 
is your box full? I think they have a limit to how much you can store on there. Other then that maybe it is a server issue on one side or the other?
 
I don't think it's full because I'm still receiving most e-mails, just some of them aren't coming through. How do you find out if it's a server issue?
 
its been so long since I used hotmail but I remember that there was a site that said whether they were having issues. Do the people who are having problems with their emails going through all have the same email address (not sure how to word it LOL) like are they all from yahoo.com or aol.com? That might be a way to tell if it is something on their end. Also maybe having them forward the email when it bounced back to them might be helpful cause it usually says why it was bounced. (like inbox full or unknown user or something else). Those are just some ideas from my own personal experience with hotmail when MSN was my internet service provider.
 
that happened to me once when i was trying to send my dad an email. i'm not help though because i just gave up and used another email, lol. i have no idea why it does that. my primary is through our comcast server now. i rarely use hotmail.
 
Are they sending you big files? My brother has hotmail, and when I send him photos the e-mail won't go through if I forget and send several photos as the files are too big. I don't know what the limit is though.
 
Actually they both use road runner, which is a cable internet here. I don't think it's the file size because they've tried sending things without an attachment and they still don't come through. They are both in my contacts and on my safe list, so I just don't know how to fix it. I'm just afraid that I'm maybe missing some other e-mails. I know the one told me what it said and it was something about being blocked, which they aren't.
 
Apparently Microsoft has blocked some hotmail acccounts because hackers have posted names/passwords on the web. Hope you aren't one of them!!! EEEEEK!!!

I just saw this on Fox&Friends this morning 10/6
 
I use roadrunner and tried to send an email to a hotmail account the other day and it got bounced back to me that hotmail has all roadrunner emails blocked. I don't think there's anything that you can do about that. Hopefully they are working to change that. Very annoying!:mad:
