HOTMAIL Reject mail from our server

Important Notice:

If you registered to this forum using a hotmail or msn email address or any other email address under Microsoft's control you won't be able to receive email notifications from this forum due to Hotmail blocking our server's IP address from sending any mail to it's users.

If you're a new user registering to this forum DON'T register using a hotmail or msn email address as you won't receive the email containing the account activation link.

If you're an existing forum member and use the subscribe to thread option and use email notifications and you are using a hotmail or msn email address you'll no longer receive email notifications.

This is out of our control. Microsoft have decided to block our IP address from sending mail to it's users.

If you rely on email notifications and are registered using a hotmail or msn email address you can update your email address to an alternative email address by clicking HERE

Point of information which may help me and others. My e-mail is a @sky.com but I use Windows Live Mail to send recieve my mail. Is this under Microsofts control?

Just changed my email addy.

For those who are unsure how to.

Top right of the board select settings and then on the left hand menu you will see change email address.

You have Windows Live Mail set-up to retrieve mail from your sky email address so this won't be affected.

Only mail sent directly from our server IP to a Hotmail, MSN, Windows Live Mail email address will be affected.

i use Gmail is that gonna be okay ??

So Microsoft decides from whom there users may get mail?

Glad I have my own server...

Cos, If you’re receiving the Microsoft live mail via your virgin account then you won’t receive notifications because the mail is being sent to Microsoft live mail and not direct to your Virgin account.

Any mail sent directly from this server to a Microsoft mail account won’t be delivered.

As stated in the thread title mate - Hotmail Reject Mail from our server IP.

Other mail providers are OK to the best of my knowledge.

As a temp solution we're now sending mail out via another source. So hotmail users will now receive mail from this forum.

i have no problems with hotmail cheers
