Has anyone else been having problems with Hotmail the last few days?  Some of the time it says

code:

---

There are no messages in this folder.

---

even though there is over 500   The first time i saw it i thought they'd all been deleted but now i think its just some server problems.

600th Post woo

Bah, sorry i'm replying to a post over a week old, but yeah!!..i saw that today in my hotmail account too! I was like , but then i refreshed and all my messages were there .

I've been having that problem for a few weeks now. Sometimes I'll sign in on messenger and no e-mail alerts will pop up. But if I check my hotmail there will be messages. Other times I don't even get the alerts to say I've recieved a message. I'm wondering if its something to do with msn 7 because its still in beta.

I tend to check a few times during the day just to make sure I haven't missed anything. Still a bit annoying though.

yea i've been having probs with not getting email alerts for a month or so now, occasionally i get them, but most of the time i dont.  But i don't think its a MSN7 thing, cos i only use MSN 6.2

I did notice that if you sign out then back in, sometimes it'll give you the alerts. Or once you visit the actually hotmail inbox it'll then decide to tell you how many you've got, like you somehow didn't know.

I'd agree with it being server issues, been a lot of those lately. Can't remember when I started having problems, but its pretty recent that it started, maybe about the same time as yours. Its not like I even get that many e-mails either, so its a pain when you don't know you've got any.

i think it is the server ive not been getting mine i nearly missed the alert for plus cos i wasnt gonna come on any forums today then i rmemberd and checked
