Hotmail account not receiving email

Posted on October 30, 2009 under Email, Hotmail  |  26 Comments

I am not able to successfully send emails to my son’s Hotmail email address from my embarqmail email address. I have been sending emails for years but recently he has not received my emails. I do not receive an error message nor do the emails I send come back……I don’t know where they are going. I have contacted Emabarqmail and they tell me the emails are going to the Hotmail address. I can receive emails from my son’s Hotmail address…..but he does not receive my emails. And, all my other emails are being delivered. Could you please advise as to what I need to do.

This is indeed a weird issue. The problem appears to be with one specific Hotmail account which is not receiving email. It would be impossible to provide a clear-cut solution and I can only offer general troubleshooting tips.

I trashed my old computer and bought a new one. Can I have the same email address on it? If so, how can I use my new computer and that email address? If not, where do I go for another email address? I am a not tech savvy so please go easy on me.

Kimberly, the same email address will work on your new computer without problems. You don’t need a new account though you can get an email address for free from one of the three best email services in the world.

Outlook Express with Comcast and Bellsouth

Posted on October 28, 2009 under Email, Outlook Express  |  Leave a comment

I have used Outlook Express with Comcast email for years. Now I am moving out of state and will be taking up Bellsouth.net internet service. I want to save any emails that I get during my moving and relocating, be able to see them after set up in new location, and continue service. How do I get Outlook Express to work with Comcast and Bellsouth without losing my emails?

Outlook Express with Comcast and Bellsouth email accounts

Since you’ve been using Outlook Express with Comcast account for some time, the email client is already configured and would be storing the messages on your computer. Changing the service from one ISP to another would not interrupt email messaging unless, of course, you cancel the old account.
