Windows Live mail problems?? Not getting email!!

Guys!

Are any of u using Windows Live mail with Windows Live Domains to access ur email (e.g. [email protected] via Live Mail)?

I have not been getting any mail at my email address for the past 2 weeks and test mails sent from my other email i.d's (yahoo, work, hotmail) to my Live Mail id is not getting through either.

I have not even been able to set up a vacation message to warn senders of this problem and to ask them to write me at an alternate email. (Windows Live mail does not have the "Vacation reply" feature)

Any advise is appreciated!!

 

I dont use a desktop client for email but I use Mozilla Thunderbird for my email at work. It is convenient and nice to use, and like Firefox it has extensions/themes to customize its look.

 

I am also talking about using a browser to access email. I access a email like [email protected] (where "yourname.com" is a domain I own) thru' the Windows Live Mail system. Microsoft allows this using a service called "Windows Live Domains"

 

Is this an upgrade version of Windows Live Mail (formerly Hotmail) which you pay for and get greater storage and other features? I dont know much about that. I thought Microsoft recently upgraded their free mail service to 5GB. For most people 2GB is way more than enough. If you dont mind using a free mail account, maybe consider switching to another mail service. I recommend Google mail.

Otherwise hopefully someone else here has knowledge on this issue.
