Access my E-mail

Important information can sometimes be sent to an old email address that you no longer use.

For instance, if you registered a domain name, a website hosting account, a PayPal, or eBay account with an old email address but forgot to update your account when you switched email providers, then messages sent by those sites will be overlooked.

Finding old email accounts is not that difficult, especially because email users tend to use the same user name, or variations of it, for all email accounts.

If you know, or have an idea of what the old user name was, then retrieving, or changing the password is simple, but each email server uses a different user name or password retrieval method.

Call your internet provider and tell them you have forgotten your email account.

Give them your name and account number, found on your monthly statement.
In some cases the Internet provider will want to email this information to you.

Be sure they send the information to the alternate email address which you can access.
You don't want them to send messages to the email address you can't currently access.

The internet provider will ask you the security question you selected when signing up for the account.

If you can't remember what you selected, then the customer service representative may ask for a user name, your address, or the telephone number under which you registered the account.

Reset the password with the customer service representative over the phone.
The representative will help you change the user name if needed and reset the password so you can access the account again.

it sound like your hotmail got hacked this all i know

in case if u have provided an alternate E mail Address at the time of registration. Try to go to msn website , try the forgot password option . Follow instructions . Msn will Send u a password reset link to your alternate email address

I beleive that hotmail or msn e-mail is not compatible with Outlook. You will have to use "Windows Live Mail" to access your msn or hotmail accounts.

could it be that your msn and facebook shared a common password? if so then its posible that someone found either password and changed them. if not then try to access your facebook from a friends profile and see if it has been tampered with, this might suggest a hacker gained access, if so you would be best to contach facebook and msn to deal with this

If you don't use your hotmail address for more than three months your account will be deactivated automatically in such a case you log through your MSN or windows live messenger with this same address and reactivate your hotmail if not possible you may contact msn authority to reactivate your account, they will do it if its not deleted account for some reason.

Are you using to access your mail via a network where there is firewall or proxy blocked for accessing hotmails and other mails.

If you got a stand alone machine and internet access please check your security setting and change it to low or medium and check its working

Hothawk

this sound more like a temporary issue that msn is having. But if this problem has be for more then 24 hours contact MSN let them know how long this has been going on they will most likely try and trouble shoot it then they will transfer you to tier 2 at that point they will disable the email account and re-enable it and reset your password. That is what I did for customers when I worked for MSN 9 out of 10 times it worked when I reset there account on my end.
