outlook express

[the gaffer]

anyone else had an email from the outlook express team ?? i had one yesterday informing me they were later this month taking away the ability to access hotmail accounts via outlook express, did they not do this once before and then back tracked ???

I got the same e-mail yesterday...

Last time, they stopped OE access for NEW FREE accounts, but existing accounts were "grandfathered" and continued to have access.

I heard about a few people with old accounts who eventually lost access, but my account still has access....

Now, it looks like they're cutting it off altogether.

There are plenty of e-mail providers, I'll probably just abandon the Hotmail account.....
or use it for online "offers" (that often result in spam).
