Offline, I was confided in an online problem!
Get this. Hotmail has been blocking emails from some hospitals, which they flag as 'nuisance emailers', thus meaning the hospitals are unable to send emails to people to update them on their relatives conditions.

I'd wondered about that.
I tried emailing my friend's hotmail yesterday and it bounced back.

But I managed to email two other hotmail addresses fine.
Hmmmmm...

How strange
It's blocking the hospital's IP address completely, so no hotmail accounts can receive the emails.

I only got one bounce back to me.
That was a .co.uk one, the others were .com

I like Hotmail
I enjoy the unpredictability of its spam filter. Will it filter the email from work or will it let it through? I just never know! Oh the excitement.

Serves people right for using shitty hotmail.
