While she is at "work" in Chicago my friend and I send emails to each other. I have hotmail and the message usually comes up straight away, only minutes from her sending it. It is our way of chatting online!

Depends where they are. It took me three weeks to get one from a friend on holiday in Cambodia!

crystaltips, is this one sent direct to you or a contact-another-talker?

Sent directly to my hotmail address - from the UK .... not really rocket science is it ?!!

Oh, no, it should get straight through then, but emails are funny things! I'm on an email list, where most of the people are in the uk and all the emails go to everybody, and I often get a reply to an email I haven't had yet, and sometimes the original never comes at all.

If its in england it should be there in seconds. There may be a chance it accidentally went in ur junk mail so check that. If not, write and complain to hotmail

Mine is normally quite quick. As far as I am aware hotmail is ok at the moment.

Ayz · 23/01/2004 15:00

Yeh i think hotmail is ok. I know my brother has problems with his account at the mo tho, so maybe u cud get in touch with them and see if there's problems in some accounts? just an idea

What is wrong with hotmail tonight? Anyone else can't get in?

lou33 · 12/03/2004 21:52

I was having trouble earlier but it's ok now.

Hulababy · 12/03/2004 21:52

I can't get into messenger either (which is obviously linked with hotmail)

Posey · 12/03/2004 21:52

I've tried about 5 times over the last 3 hours and can't get in either. Not that I'm expecting anything besides the usual junk, but would be nice to check.

Hulababy · 12/03/2004 21:55

Just tried again and still not working. Says there is a problem with the service when I try and sign in.

Janh · 12/03/2004 23:40

I just tried too and nothing happened.

spacemonkey · 13/03/2004 00:26

Yes it's still down for me too!

Ailsa · 13/03/2004 12:53

I managed to log in about 5 minutes ago.

spacemonkey · 13/03/2004 15:00

Yes, I noticed it came back up at about 1am this morning and it's been fine for me ever since
