Hotmail Getting "Server Busy"? You're in a LOWER Svc Tier!!!

Hi.

Re: Hotmail crappy response times (for some address and not others).

I have proved this to myself by doing repeated tests on multiple e-mail
address. The newer ones, with less e-mail archived, are prone to slower
response times, "server busy" or not available msgs, regression to the
old Times New Roman pages, and page not found msgs.

This is NO LONGER a theory! It is fact! Go ahead, if you've got
multiple accounts that fit the bill, see what I mean!

And you know, it may make a degree of sense (to MSN). If you've got
constrained resources (which clearly they've got), give more machine
time to those who use the service more frequently. And how do you tell
who to give more machine time to? The accounts with a larger amount of
stored mail AND anyone paying a premium, that's who! And you get some
kind of bonus for the amount of time you've had the account (not
exactly sure how this factors in).

I dare someone from Microsoft to refute this. If it's not the case, it
runs counter to the evidence. This need to shuffle and play favorites
with certain IDs would go away if someone would just cough up a couple
million for much needed hardware upgrades. Bill?

Bests,
