Hotmail problems.

[kryptonic]

Hotmail has been being very wierd lately. Ive been getting emails from my mom that she sent like a week ago. Like today i got one that she sent on the 20th then one she sent on the 19th. I was wondering if anyone else was haveing this problem or might know what the problem could be. The other wierd thing is she gets the emails from me in normal time. But i get em delayed. Any ideas?

Thanks

where is she sending her emails from .. if it is a private work one it could be configured in such a way the mail router only releases them every five days .. .mind you noone would have it set like that normally so it is probably something else

She is sending them from a library in vegas. Both my parents live in vegas...she seems to be getting the emails fine though so thats why its wierd.

as above mentioned may the library router has been configured in such a way that it sends the mail once in every 5days or so , check out the daye, is she using outlook or is it just plain Webmail .

check the dates on the mail and tru to confirm them with you parents, if they do differ then it must be as firewall said

Yea but the thing is for a while they were sending in real time and comeing to me like 5 sec after they sent them.

i dont know if this is related. or whether attached files has anything to do with it.

but i tried recieving an email from a friend with a word doc attached <50kb or so. so it shouldnt have slowed down transfer time. but i didnt recieve that email for a long while, and it came hours later. hotmail webmail was used for both sending and receiving. that was about 3 days ago. however, i havent noticed any problems apart from that one incident.

Yea all she ever sends is emails no attachment. they are usually no more than 2kb.
