Hotmail (1 Viewer)

It's getting lame because I was sending an email to a friend and it required me to verify my account by typing in some letters and numbers for the sake of preventing automated sending of emails.
This means notifications of parties cannot be done easily using Hotmail.

get gmail.

btw did you just open up the hotmail account? there might be a "cooling off period" to prevent spamming software

Does this happen whenever you are sending an email, or just to this person?
Iirc, when I made my new hotmail account there was a choice of having a 'captcha' program so that when people send me emails they have to read the distorted image. Maybe your friend has this enabled.

Yes I think she has this enabled.

Tell her to take it off or you will cut her. It's the only way.

It's only just "getting lame"? You've done well to last so long.

it's served me well so far and i've had it since about 2001.
but, then again, i barely use email anyway.

The server is down atm though which is a bit of a pain.
