lelapin Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 This morning I sign on to my hotmail a/c with no problem. Click on INBOX and see I have 3 emails. Within 2 seconds before I can open one, the list disappears and it shows INBOX empty. I click INBOX again and they show for 2 seconds again and disappear. Anybody have any idea why and how I can solve the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I am not familiar with the current version of the program. It could be that there is a filer to show only the last 3 month, or a filter to show only emails from people in your address book or something similar. Look if you see somewhere something like "Filter". You can try in general if it works if you can ask someone with whom you exchange regularly mails to send you a mail. You should see that in your inbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First , try clearing your cache and deleting cookies etc. Then try a different browser like Firefox. I have had issues with Chrome lately but everything fine on Firefox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biervoormij Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Hotmail split the inbox into 2 different inboxes. One is called Focused and one called Other. Is it possible the emails are moving to the Other section. Do you have anything in the Junk folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can stop the Focussed rubbish by ciicking on settings, bottom left gearwheel, and stopping Focussed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switching email address is not easy and a lot of work. Several passwords are linked to my hotmail. Is there any automatic way to change. I already have a gmail account where all my hotmails are automatically forwarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that is what you are doing. I'm unaware that hotmail stores passwords and if it did that would be a huge security risk. I recommend you either purchase a 1password subscription or install keepass2 for windows or keepassxc for linux or mac. Then store the password file in google drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I'm not advocating you stop. I use yahoo mail for my recovery. Gmail is my daily driver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This always comes up whenever someone has issues or asks a question about Hotmail/Outlook mail and often with no justification. We all have preferences for different reasons and personally I would be doing myself no favours by switching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunHeineken Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 OP, is your Hotmail account out of storage space. 15GB for email and 5GB for One Drive. The GB's include attachments as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
