- Hotmail filters...

J

Jon Yeager

It's common knowledge that in its welcome efforts to limit spam, Hotmail is
filtering everything from our inboxes including the kitchen sink, and some
valid emails are getting caught in the crossfire.

Anyone know what triggers its filters? I have a mailing list that people
voluntarily subscribed to, but they're not getting the mailings. Well, they
are, but they're coming up as blank emails. I'm trying to narrow down what
the reason could be... externally linked images? Images too large (120k in
extreme situations)? Too many images?

I receive Roger Ebert's newsletter weekly and it's essentially a webpage,
with graphics and all. Why isn't that being filtered out?

Anyone know what's causing my mailings to show up BLANK in Hotmail?

Thanks.

Try posting this to a MSN group - Hotmail has little to do with Outlook
except as a mail service.
