Hotmail is dropping inbound emails

"Microsoft is simply deleting legitimate emails."

I can agree with this. As part of some calendar interoperability testing, I recently established a new Hotmail account. Sometimes, a confirmation email being sent to my account simply never arrives. Most of the time, it goes into the junk mail folder. But other times, the mail never shows up. Don't use Hotmail if you expect every email sent to you to get through Microsoft's filters, because some of them won't get through.

We need a list of housing complexes that provide good Internet access

"I live in one of these draconian housing complexes that force us to pay for bundled inferior analog cable service even though I don't use it.  The FCC has ruled against these types of exclusive contracts but I don't think that can overturn my current situation."

Here's an idea. Someone should start a list of those housing complexes who provide good service. Then, those complexes that aren't on the list will, by implication, have work to do.
