Hotmail messages a little slow to get there..
 

Is anyone having trouble with hotmail recently? Ive sent a few emails over the past few weeks and most get there, but some get there a few days later. And in extreme cases, 8 days and worse 21 days.

I'm puzzled.:Yikes:

:welcome: to Cable Forum bbwannabe. I haven't had any trouble with Hotmail recently. It might be worth checking your filter settings. I have mine set to "Enhanced".

Thanks for the welcome. I was a previous member when nthellworld.com was still around :) the good old days.

Anyway i have my filter on default, and i use outlook.Its never been a problem till just recently.

Make sure all the server settings are correct in
outlook

Yep, they're set correctly. I use the outlook wizard when creating a new account and i tell it that its a http one (it's own).

Do you get any errors? If so can you post them?

Re: Hotmail messages a little slow to get there..
 

Nope, no errors. Ive set hotmail up in outlook like i normally do (done it at least 10 tens before with no problems) and no problems with this.

Just did a send/receive call in OE and no error messages, just displays two emails of one actual email but its happened before so im assuming its normal.
