Solution found for NOT BEING ABLE TO OPEN LINKS WITHIN HOTMAIL EMAILS:

Disable popup blocker.

I resolved the issue of page not found when trying to access hotmail by doing the following:

Enable the TLS 1.0 protocol

In Internet Explorer:
Tools, Internet Options, Advanced

Under Security, check on Use TLS 1.0

Hope this helps, don't know why MSN doesn't advertise this simple fix. TLS never used to be an available protocol, Microsoft added it so....

Good Luck!

Dear Leo: When we hit reply to e-mails, the original e-mail comes up on the message area, but is jumbled and unreadable. How can we fix that, if at all? Thanks.

Hi,
I have been using Hotmail. But I do not get emails either to Hotmail or throught Outlook Express. The only one i get is from MSN (daily), and Hotmail. I am able to send to myself, I only received one from work on the 20th.
Thank you,
TJ

Dear Leo, I am an amateur on the computer and often get myself into unknown territory so I hesitate to try some of your suggestions above. To tell you the truth I don't even know how the heck I ever started Hotmail. To my recolection I replied to a link and I was not able to send it no matter what I tried. I must have ended up giving my user name and password? Today I did the same and when I tried to send the mail I was asked for my Hotmail info which I have been unsuccessful in completing. The very extensive e-mail is long gone and I have called everyone with no success. Can you comment how this can happen? Could I possibly remember this correctly? Thanks.

How do I block out various emails that I do not wish to receive.?
