My friend has finally got broadband, and a new "orangehome" email account. This is working out fine for her, but she is unable to email my hotmail account. I can email her, but she cant email me.
Any ideas?
TIA

Is it just you or can't she email to anyone?"She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

When you say "can't email" does she get an error message, bounce back or does it simply just not arrive?"She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

Not sure if its just me - we are trying to find out if her other hotmail friend has received her email. Will update the thread when we find out.
From her end, it seems like there is not a problem. No error messages or anything.Threadhead0 -
I'd check your spam/junk folder just in case."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

Yup, tried that - not there either!
She's tried typing my addy in, and also replying to my messages, but neither way is working.Threadhead0 -

Sorry - should have said, she has emailed non-hotmail people and they have received it ok.Threadhead0 -
Sorry to "bump" this thread, but anyone got any ideas?

Update incase anyone is interested

Orange have told my friend that it is a spam filter that they are using which is filtering out hotmail account and anything international
They are aware of the problem and are trying to sort it out.Threadhead0
