  2. Hotmail password got hacked

    Nah, you have to register the e-mail with them when you're signed in.

    E-mail 'em mate, they'll change it no worries. Year before last I forgot my password, I just had to e-mail them with a picture of me, holding a hand-written note displaying my name.

    Windows Mail - Sent Folder (Hotmail) not showing mail > 30days old


    Hi All, I've searched wide and far online for an answer but have had little luck - looking to one of you for some guidance here if possible.

    Issue:
    • Sent mail folder in Mail application on Windows 10 doesn't sync more than 30 days of send messages for Hotmail account.
    • Only Hotmail account affected on Mail application; other sub folders sync as far back as possible
    • Gmail account is fine - can see years of sent email

    Context:
    • I have 2 accounts added to my Mail client on Windows 10 - 1 hotmail, 1 gmail
    • I have Outlook mail installed on this machine also
    • Windows 10 Pro
    • Dell Precision M3800
    • Upgraded from Windows 7 -> Windows 10

    Tried:
    • Removing and readding the hotmail account
    • Tried removing and adding the account as POP3 account as well as the built in Hotmail autosetup link
    • Removed all email accounts and readded them
    • Ensured that the application has permission to access calendar (have seen this online in a few places as a possible problem maker)
    • Checked that I have my sent messages (I can see them in Outlook 2013, but not in Mail -> Sent folder)

    All help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!

    Hotmail accounts posted online

    Thousands of Hotmail passwords have been hacked and posted online, according to reports.

    See this arcticle for more details:

    I suggest that you change your password if you use any "Live" accounts.
