wtf is up with hotmail?

[mikej007]

Before anyone says "hotmail sux0rz, gmail pwnz" let me say I'm aware of this.

I'm expecting an email and since about 8:15 this morning you get this wonderful message when going to hotmail.com:

Server Too Busy.

We are experiencing higher than normal volume and are therefore unable to service your request at this time. Try one of the following:

* In your browser, click Refresh
* In your browser, click Back, and try again
* Wait a few minutes and try again

We apologize for this inconvenience.

WHY DO YOU SUCK?!

Can you use mail.live.com? My Office Live account was changed over to Live Webmail a few months ago, so I logged in there when I got the message this morning, but I think you can still log into regular hotmail from there.

 

[mikej007]

nope, same thing.

That happens with them from time to time. Really, you shouldn't rely on them.
Also, I find email takes longer to show up with hotmail than with other sites.

I think they are upgrading their mail system. When I finally got into my mail box I notice the storage has gone up to 1000mb. I haven't check my hotmail account in over a month, not sure if this is new.

Mine is doing that too, although I rarely use in anymore, so I dont really care.

Having same problem. Need to get to my email this morning too...dammit.

 

[mikej007]

Yay! Back up. About fvckin time. My mailbox is also upgraded to 1000mb.

EDIT: It's taking about 4 years to open my 600kb attachment though.

i'm in a MSN parenting group and i've been seeing this message all week...

"Hmmm, We Can't Find that Page...

The page you're looking for might have been moved or deleted. Or, perhaps the Web address is misspelled?

Ideas to help you find what you're looking for:
Try refreshing the page (click Refresh or Reload on your browser).
Check the address for spelling and punctuation errors.
Go to MSN Groups Home and look around from there. "


i just refresh and it magically finds the site!

I remember when they went from 10MB to 200MB things were god awful - couldn't access my email consistently for months.

Luckily I do use GMail for most things.

I'd be happy to go back to 10MB on hotmail if it would just work.
