    @hotmail.com recovery emails blocked from recovering

    Anyone who hasn't used their account for a couple of years who has an @hotmail.com recovery email is blocked from automatic recovery.

    If you need to recover please open a dispute.

    Anyone who still has an @hotmail.com email set for their sythe.org sign-up email please upgrade to a gmail or other email account. We will begin blocking all @hotmail.com account recoveries two weeks from now.

    This is due to the large number of hackings @hotmail.com accounts attract and the ease with which hackers are able to re-make or recover these accounts.

    Thanks. Was desperately needed. Could someone move my suggestions thread to approved, since this covers it.

    I think this should be posted under news, I don't believe it will get the exposure it needs under this section.

    Thanks for this. I've been looking to change my registered email but I was told that if I changed the registered email the email that I receive emails to from sythe.org would not change. Is this true? If it is, can you make it that the notification emails always go to your registered email?

    Sounds good.

    Will @live.com / @hotmail.co.uk be affected?

    Thanks I guess. I got targetted and the hacker used my sythe account to scam people.

    12 hours before it happened, Sellerman posted a thread in the suggestion forum. He advised the mods to make people aware of the hotmail exploit. Mods just expected everyone to know about it & closed the thread. 12 hours later I find my sythe account has been stolen by this hacker.
    It could have been prevented in some way. A small announcement might have made several people(as me) change their hotmail recovery emails right away.

    Now I've got to switch all my other stuff, having 2 emails for the same sort of things is just confusing.

    Better safe than sorry though I guess..
