No it happens all the time. Just not consistantly all the
time. I subscribe to numerous online computer parts
mailing lists and it happens to them from one day to the
next as well as with personal emails from friends using
the same email address. I can receive 3 emails in a row
from the same guy over the course of a couple hours, then
all of a sudden a 4th email from him will go into the Junk
folder.

As far as the Hotmail accts. I have been doing some
experimenting. They DO work, however, OL will not permit
you to include them into the default .pst file that the
normal POP accounts use. Each Hotmail (HTML)account that
is added goes into its own unique .pst file, however, they
appear as addnl. "Personal Folders" at the bottom of the
normal OL folder list. I read somewhere that you could
only use (1) Hotmail acct. in OL. NOPE. I have added (2)so
far and they work fine.
