Can not send email to hotmail addresses from outlook.
by QWhyZW4 » Wed, 04 Jan 2006 23:41:04 GMT
When I send email to a Hotmail account, it always comes back as failed.
Apparently it has nothing to do with the firewall on the computer. I use
webmail to access my mail when I am working from a different office, would
this stop me sending to Hotmail address?

if your corporation prevents users from sending to hotmail addresses, yes,
it will also fail with webmail.

"it comes back as failed". What is *it*?
If "it" is an error message saying the mail session failed. In that case,
how about telling *us* what was that error message? The likely cause is
that you don't have a paid Hotmail account. Microsoft discontinued WebDAV
access, the method used by Outlook and Outlook Express, to freebie Hotmail
accounts back around 29-Nov-2004. If your account was older than that, it
got grandfathered in. If it was newer than that, you only get to use the
webmail interface.
If "it" is an NDR (non-delivery report) then it could have been sent by your
mail server or from the recipient's mail server. In either case, what did
the NDR say?
