Hotmail does not recognise password.

Having had a hotmail account for years and been using it with Outlook since
before you needed a premium account, I have never had a problem. Until
yesterday. Now it keeps on asking for my password and errors with:
Task '(e-mail address removed): Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.' reported
error (0x800CCC32) : 'Access to the account was denied. Verify that your
username and password are correct. The server responded 'Invalid login.'.

My username and password have not changed. Is there a problem with this
service? I can access hotmail from the web without a problem so I know my
account is OK.

Thanks

And just after I posted this it started working again!

Strange, but true.

Yes, I noticed an email in my junk mail on outlook that I received on Friday
- it's now gone and wasn't Junk!

The new 'Live Mail' also doesn't work with the iPhone - it was working fine
for me earlier in the week on the 'Old' hotmail - is there any way of going
back to it?

Not impressed with the latest changes. Maybe it's time to ditch hotmail
after all these years!
