Problems connecting to Outlook

For at least a week now, I've had problems connecting to Miscrosoft Outlook / Hotmail. To be more specific, it either takes several attempts to establish a connection and/or I get a message from Outlook " We can't connect to Outlook at the moment. Please try again later." I don't use it myself, but my wife depends on it for her email. I doubt very much if this is a Zen issue, but I thought I'd post here as I stand a fair chance of getting intelligent replies from my fellow Zen users :>))

Sorry I'm not "intelligent Zen user" but I'm having exactly the same problems with my Hotmail account and have not found an answer!

However we are not alone, see here

So I will keep an eye on this thread to get the answer

Thanks for the reply. This looks like a major cock-up by Microsoft. Even if the new Outlook worked, it looks like rubbish compared with Hotmail.

I agree, MS seem to like "improving" a perfectly good system and making it worse!

And don't get me started on Windows 8 !!!!!!!!!

My wife said the same thing. She does not like the new site at all.

I instead now use Office Outlook on the PC and have it collect her hotmail emails. Not perfect but it is better... well so she tells me
