Re: [IRCA] FW: Delivery status notification

[Michael Hawkins <downsized99@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't get that much with Hotmail anymore, but I am getting way more with Yahoo.  Hotmail has regional servers.  In Northern California, there are regular issues with Hotmail being unavailable.  I don't know if they're getting new servers/disk arrays online or just overloaded, but it seems they're much more interested in bombarding me with their MSN portal when I get done than making sure I can ever get done.

  You guys sure have had some awful experiences with Hotmail. I get 10 times
more spam via my arrl.net address than I do via Hotmail. In fact, I get
maybe one or two pieces of spam per month at my Hotmail address. 

As for reliability, I put my Hotmail address in the signature of my work
e-mail as a back-up because there are times when my Hotmail e-mail is more
reliable than the account that I pay for.

And therein lies the bulk of the problem. MSN, which also owns Hotmail
has about as ham-handed an approach as anyone out there ( although
Comcast is right down there with them ). Microsoft, which seems to be
almost completely indifferent to building software which isn't full of
holes spammers and malware purveyors can easily exploit really
shouldn't be expected to have an effective approach to controlling such
on their networks either.
