Problem: Email to Hotmail is blocked for 24 hours Cause: Compromised account spamming hotmail Affects: Any email sent to a hotmail address Started: 06/17/2009 12:09 AM Resolved: 06/18/2009 12:09 AM
Notes:
A user's account was compromised (phishing scam) and used to send Spam to Hotmail.Hotmail then blocked all email from Case for 24 hours. I told them the problem was resolved on our end but they said they can not do anything to speed up the unblocking.
Since the blocks were not lifted at 9:09 our time I assume they meant pacific time. :( Times updated.
