Hotmail sucks in terms of delivering emails on a consistent basis. Quite a number of Hotmail users report (even after looking in their junk email folder) that they never received the confirmation request which our mail server sends out. Our mail server log files clearly show that the confirmation request was sent out and accepted by Hotmail for delivery. Hotmail just doesn't deliver it into your mailbox, so you will be unable to join the list. Yet other Hotmail users have no problem at all.If you have another email service you can use for your subscription besides Hotmail, we strongly suggest using it instead.
