Hotmail + PBW = Oil + Water
 

I have been gettign scads of bounced emails today for Messages from PBW that could not be delivered. All of them are from the Hotmail postmaster. The way I figure it either Hotmail is having a problem in general, or they have decided that PBW is a spammer and started blocking us.

Can any PBW'ers that have hotmail accounts as your PBW email tell me if you are getting anything at all? Turn notices, game news, etc.

I use Hotmail for all my PBW mail goodness. I am receiving game notices, and turn notices as usual.

My hotmail account is recieving new turn notices fine. Maybe it's blocking turn notices with .zip attachments???

Id say the hotmail accounts are full what is their size now like 512 kb?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Nope, 2 MB. IMHO, most likely spam filters are hyperactive in the accounts that are bouncing.

My account is working just fine. Just received a turn notification just now in fact http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Displaced Hotmail Users should find other services, there's plenty out there.

I have been having the same problem quite often with Hotmail, as *many* emails bounced from this... erh... thing will do. The size for the attachments is supposed to have been reduced to 512ko as well, but I cannot remember where I read it.

I receive new turn notifications, but i had to include all game owners emails into safe list. Otherwise emails from them are put into Junk Folder automatically.
