Anybody else notice the extra MB?

Re: Hotmail
 

No...when? How much?

Just one extra MB. Just noticed in about 5 minutes ago.

I have 2mb. I don't remember how much it was before but I'm at 89% capacity and that's where I was before so something's wacky.

Wasn't it used to be 1 MB? Or am I smoking crack again?

If it was why am I still almost at capacity?

Didnt ya'll get the email saying that they were raising our limits to 250M or something. Also you'll be able to send email attachments up to 10M I think.

Per MSN:
More E-Mail Storage -- Get a 250MB inbox -- FREE. That's over 125 times your current e-mail storage!
Larger Attachments -- Send or receive attachments of up to 10MB -- 10 times your current limit, and on average, the equivalent of 4 or 5 digital pictures*.
MSN Calendar -- Manage your time more efficiently by sharing your calendar with others. Schedule events with your friends and family, right from your Hotmail account!

The email I got said 2 weeks. MSN now says this fall. Obviously there are some technical issues they are workign on.

I STILL will not go back to hotmail.

For those of you who have it, hopefully they come through with the expanded storage. I just had too many problems with the service before.

Microsoft is evil.
Microsoft owns Hotmail.
Hotmail is evil.

Makes sense to me.

Get Gmail, it works better.

Mine says more storage soon...They are probably trying to compete with the new gmail and yahoo. Yahoo just added tons more storage. I may just may a transition soon.

Is anyone else's hotmail being weird?

I went to check my e-mail and I can get to the "Today" page, but when I click on the "mail" tab, it says "cannot find page".

Maybe they're uploading the new storage??? Anyone else having problems? :confused:

I've been having to reload quite a get (getting those "page not found" errors) but other than that, it seems okay.

I spread the word of gmail to people on here...well some knew, but I would like to take credit for some of it :)

It's hard getting rid of my hotmail account because I like to check my email with a mail program and gmail doesn't support that. I have a gmail account and will use it much more if it did allow for that.

huck fotmail.

Hotmail is getting annoying with the spam. I am getting really tired of playboy or some site exploiting playboy spaming me to view the Trishelle Cannatella pics she did with playboy.

The spam and any other nonsense is worth the hassle. I have had the same email account since 1997. People from 7 years ago can still reach me. Thats pricesless to me. Hate that chit that half of my friends change email addys weekly. Its a pain in MY ass. Just stick with something ok?

Wow my hotmail account now has 2000mb space. And I thought my gmail's 1000mb was alot.

Hotmail is really starting to annoy me. I've been trying to send emails out to some of my friends, like 4 or five at a time and all of the AOL ones keep bouncing back. Even if I hit reply to one that's come in. Sooo annoying. And I haven't gotten my extra storage space yet.

You're joking right?

For the record... gmail is still better :D

Nope. I really have 2000mb with hotmail. When I used MSN it gave me a bigger account. It was 25mb I believe. Since I paid for it I keep it for a year even though I don't use msn any longer. So I guess the 25Mb accounts now are 2000mb now. Supposenly the free accounts are 1000mb like gmail now.

Beat me to the explination. :p
