Spam Email
March 9, 2016 at 5:15 am
Hi, after I signed up I waited for my authentication email, and waited and waited.
Then I signed onto Hotmail online and found it in my junk folder.
I right clicked and stated 'Not Junk' and it redirected directly to my normal mail.

Subsequently all my replies to subscribed threads also do not come to me.
Quiet obviously they are likely existing in my junk folder online as well.

Why did Hotmail automatically feel server posts from here were junk? There were no vulgar words or any other autoscript issues I could see that could cause this UNLESS Hotmail have agreed already that this particular site spreads 'junk'? That's a worry.

I chose this site because of the .ORG suffix, I hoped there was no shady business going on. But THEN to my shock I found a hidden area where unsavory adulterous filth breeds and manifests into what I can only describe as heaven Smile I am yet to obtain a level of 'respect' that allows my eyes to burn with desire so I can only dream of such an exotic pleasure zone of unprecedented orgasmic pleasures. OR I could just search lame pics on Google search :p

My point is, was THIS the concern that Hotmail ultimately objected to?

Hotmail relies heavily on user input. What likely happened was that someone (or someones) signed up for a bunch of alerts from the site and decided they didn't want them anymore. So, instead of unsubscribing here, they just marked it as spam.

Easy fix: get a Gmail account.

I realize it was a few years ago, and maybe it's better now, but I closed out my Gmail account because of the continuous and copious spam diarrhea.
