Flashermac Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 My original email is the one I set up on Hotmail somewhere back in the 1990s. It's the one my sister and friends in the States use to contact me. I also use it when I fight with Social Security, IRS, and the Veterans Administration. So today I go to log on and repeatedly get ... 401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied. I went to my Hotmail account and checked that everything was the same. I had them verify everything with an SMS. And I still get the same damned message. What's going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted November 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Fucking Hotmail and Outlook! I just googled and found out that people are complaining across the world about this. Why can't the morons leave things alone? If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Coss Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Gmail - been bullet proof for me. Sure its a pain when you have to migrate from one to the other, but then you don't have these recurring problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted November 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Today Hotmail is working fine again. I do have gmail, but most of my family and friends still use my hotmail address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
