    To anybody else out there, who uses Hotmail...

    Have you just noticed in the past week or 2, that the amount of junkmail that is getting through, has just gone through the roof??

    I don't know about anybody else, but I used to get maybe 10... 15 items a week in my junk email box. Here recently, I get about 10/15 per hour!

    Hopefully it's coming through as part of maintenance from MS, but something is definitely different, and I'm curious if anybody else is seeing this.

    Nope, not that bad here... at least not in the junk mail folder. I think my junk mail settings are lower than default, cuz more does seem to be coming into my inbox lately, but not 10/15 per hour... maybe 5/day?

    Re: To anybody else out there, who uses Hotmail...

    Hmm... Maybe my first estimate was a bit of a stretch, but somewhere in the 'hood of 5/hour is probably legit.

    I wake up to around 30+ items every day, where previously (like I mentioned), I would get somewhere around 10/15 week.

    Egh... at least they are getting filtered, but I do feel compelled to scan them, and that's becoming a chore.

    No issues with my account. Although, I have had this account since 1997 and never had an issue with it. Now, my Gmail, Yahoo, and .EDU accounts are all getting spammed pretty good.

    Yeah huge amounts, I have been getting a ton of Undeliverable Notices from about 5-6 different senders, started all of the sudden, I sent Hotmail a message about it but have yet to hear anything. Went from about 12 junk emails a day to about 60, it is nuts.
