Outlook email
So, anyone out there successfully use an outlook.com email address with the forums?
Outlook seems to be silently blocking emails. I've checked my junk folder and the blocked senders list and there is nothing obvious there.
I might end up switching back to my old email.

I use earthlink and haven't had any issues.
Re: Outlook email
I think this might be an issue specific to outlook.com, with it blocking the email server (?) the forum uses.
I never had an issue with previous email addresses I've used.

Re: Outlook email
Maybe there is some setting you can change. Microsoft did some stupid update on my PC recently and everything got slow and started doing weird stuff, I ended up having to reset all my settings and clear stuff. Microsoft is really annoying.
Re: Outlook email
I'll take a look, but I've been googling and it seems that outlook has an aggressive hidden blocklist that quietly does this. It seems to be worse when an email server is used for the domains of various different customers, and then one customer gets a bad rep for spam then that ruins the reputation for all email domains on that server and they all get on the blocklist.
Sigh. I'll probably stop using it if I can't trust emails to arrive.

That stinks.

Yup. At least I've only just got the new email account and haven't started using it in many places.
Re: Outlook email
Now I've just received an PM notification email, how odd.
Re: Outlook email
Some forums I get the notification emails way late, some are pretty quick. I use the same yahoo email for most of them. Weird how it does that.
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Re: Outlook email
I use Outlook and I can only describe its peformance as "erratic" although it does work / hasn't banned anyone (to my knowledge!)
Re: Outlook email
Mail delivery has been slow here, and I'm on gmail. In some ways it's a bother, in others it doesn't matter since this is the site I look at multiple times a day (hour)...
Re: Outlook email
Here's a thing though re: my last. Nearly all notifications from the Servant turn up in "Junk". Fortunately for me, since I'm luckily not overwhelmed with Spam, this helps me manage them! However, despite my (no doubt feeble) attempts to dissuade it Outlook appears to remain "prejudiced"!
