Does anyone know how to stop hotmail from filtering the FML?  Or where
to find the FML if it does get filtered?
 
A couple of subscribers from hotmail have suddenly stopped getting the
FML.  Their FMLs don't bounce back to me -- hotmail just swallows them
up.  They're not in the hotmail "junk" folder and not in the regular
inbox -- I'm told they're just not there.
 
I really don't want to sign up to hotmail, though I know I should for
educational purposes.  But I really don't want to sign up with hotmail.
I really really don't.  Oh, did I say that already?
 
Anyhow, seeing how 267 people on the FML are subscribed with hotmail.com
addresses, I assume at least some of you actually receive the FML there.
If you have any idea what these two subscribers might be overlooking a
quick note would be great!
 
(Yes, there have been many instances of hotmail just deciding to reject
a bunch of FMLs -- sometimes for a few days.  Sometimes it doesn't even
bounce them back to me.  But when that happens a whole bunch of people
write to complain.  Since this is just two subscribers I'm inclinded to
believe it MIGHT not be hotmail's unpredictability.  I really don't want
to sign up with hotmail... oh, yeah, I said that already...)
 
Thanks,
Bill
