Emails to hotmail address are not received

Hi,

When a user uses a hotmail address as signup information, emails from vanilla are not received by Hotmail. Not even in the junk-box. I could not even sign up to this forum, since I would not receive an email from http://vanillaforums.org/ to Hotmail. Apparantly there is something really wrong.

  • First things first... welcome to the community!

    Secondly, double check the email address was entered correctly.

    Thirdly, try using an SMTP server instead of the built-in mailer.

  • @hgtonight thanks mate! I have tried a smtp server without security. Account verifications to a hotmail address were not received.

    If I change the user from 'confirm email' role to 'member' role and reset the password, the password is received properly. I do not know if this is a sudden occurrence so I have to test this properly.

    Will update.
