Thread Name: Tech: MSN And Hotmail email Down
Subject: RE: Tech: MSN And Hotmail email Down
My normal OE connection got me one piece of SPAM in the bulk mail box, which may indicate that the server they put me on at the last of their many "migrations" probably is working, but I got a "cannot connect" trying to go in on a browser connection using the link direct to my email.

I got in to the parent website at http://www.msn.com/ although the page load was extremely slow even for my connection. There's a hotmail link from there that might work, although suspiciously the link was shown in red and eventually a "NEW" tag appeared on it. (I don't go there often enough to know that it's not normal.) I have no idea whether that has any significance or not. If you try to go in that way, you may have to do a login - username and password and all that stuff that's "remembered" with your usual shortcut.

I didn't try to proceed to the hotmail web connection because every time I do a "web-connection-with-login" it messes up everything in my normal OE folders.
