Hotmail problems

*Raceit* · 12-11-2001, 01:00 PM

Is anyone else having problems with hotmail? I've got two hotmail accounts and only one works. The other gives an error message to try back later. WTF?

No problems here.

Now there is a different error messages...

"We apologize, but your account is temporarily unavailable. This delay does not affect the entire site or relate specifically to your account, but the machine that holds your account information is temporarily unavailable. We do not expect this delay to last much longer, so please continue to check our site for your account status.
We will do our best to make your account available as quickly as possible. We appreciate your support, and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience."

...I just kept having thoughts of my entire email account being deleted for some reason.

Well, nevermind then. Thanks anyways!

Hotmail is a pain in the @$$. I've been having the same problem for about 2 months now. This is what works for me: If you don't use the tab key to switch between boxes and you wait for the whole page to load, it works 85% of the time. Ha. Sounds ridiculous.. but it works.

Also, if you have Outlook Express, you can set it up to check your hotmail account without needing to go to the hotmail site. That works about 98% of the time.
