【科技 : Gadgets】Live Mail treats email from Microsoft as junk mail

关键字:Windows Live Mail,Hotmail,Junk,Microsoft


People from Microsoft are really getting smarter now days.

I was trying to download 2007 Microsoft Office System Beta 2 and after filling up pages of forms and surveys, I was required to do a email verification.

Microsoft send an email to my Hotmail address and I am expected to click the link given in the email to prove that I'm the owner of the email address. This is a common practice while registering for forums or softwares, and emails sent to my Hotmail account are always treated as junk mail.

And this time, even Microsoft's own verification email was treated as junk mail by Windows Live Mail which is, too, under Microsoft.

How smart.

I don't have chance to reach that step yet, the page got some problem when I was browsing.

If i am not wrong, you need to pay certain small amount of money to download that beta software.

To me I see that as a good thing. I'm not saying that the filter is working well as it's giving false positive. But Live Mail team should worth a praise for not whitelisting all @microsoft.com emails.

However, they should be working harder on their junk mail filter.
