In news:%23SsKlqEGFHA.3596@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl,
Galen <galennews@gmail.com> had this to say:

A bit of an update... I got this in my mail today:

***********************************************************

MSN HOTMAIL MEMBER COMMUNICATION

Dear MSN Member,

Recently, Hotmail(r) announced that in order to improve customer
experience and reduce spam and junk e-mail abuse on MSN(r) services,
Hotmail will no longer allow new e-mail accounts to be accessed via
Microsoft(r) Office Outlook(r) and Outlook Express.

We are pleased to inform you that because you are an existing and
valued customer, at this time your current Hotmail and MSN
account(s) are exempt from this restriction and you will be able to
continue enjoying access to those accounts from Outlook or Outlook
Express. However, any new Hotmail or MSN accounts you create will
not be accessible via Outlook or Outlook Express.

**************************************************************

Above and beyond that my Hotmail has been unusually fast all day. Maybe the
troubles have ended and the kinks are worked out.

Galen
