Hotmail Negative Vibes

[amisababi]

I can't download any hotmail mail.
Negative vibes started 4-5 hours ago.
Any way to fix? Any update to the extension?

TIA

[KE4AVB]

Give this a try.

Log in to the web interface for Hotmail via your web browser, go to Options>More Options.
Then click Account Details, and at the bottom there is a link to
"Connect with HTTPS". Enable this option and your error with TB Webmail will probably go away.

There been several accounts that this has fix the negative vibes error lately.

[amisababi]

Thanks, Eugene, I just tried that, but it did not fix the negative
vibes. :(
Any other suggestions/ideas?

[Gary]

amisababi,

I, too, have been getting "bad vibes" from two (basic/free) Hotmail
accounts. I tried Eugene's suggestions on both accounts but it didn't
work for me either. What I ended up doing is just connecting directly
via POP3. If you are interested, here are the settings that worked for
me.

POP3 Server: pop3.live.com
User Name: my-e...@hotmail.com
Connection security: SSL/TLS
Port: 995
Authentication method: Normal password

SMTP server: smtp.live.com
User Name: my-e...@hotmail.com
Connection security: STARTTLS
Port: 587
Authentication method: Normal password

Cheers,
Gary

[amisababi]

Thanks, Gary. I am aware of the POP3 access workaround, used it
before, but really don't wanna use again it as the webmail extension
is so much better than the POP3, so hopefully there is a way to fix it
to make it work again...

Cheers

Hi,

I'm getting this error today "Sending of password did not succeed.
Mail server localhost responded: negative vibes from" my account is
already set to use HTTPS.

appreciate all the help

Sincerely,

Obviously something has changed with hotmail. I'm adding my name to
the list. Has anyone contacted or heard from the author directly?

[Ice Thijs]

Hi all,

The HTTPS option does not fix the problem for me, as it didn't for
other users.

Would the webmail author be interested in the log files? I'll be happy
to provide them.

Kind regards,
Ice Thijs

I started receiving the following message on the Hotmail webmail site this morning myself and following the instructions does not fix the problem. Apparently there is problem on Microsoft side. It seems to be intermittent as sometimes I am able to get in without a problem. It is affecting both my TB and FF.

Eugene, for me it seems permanent since yesterday. Hotmail webmail
site works fine tho.
By the way, can't see your attachment...

It appears Microsoft is sending an invalid dated cookie.

Eugene,

In my Webmail logs the returned cookie information you list is in the
logs when mail was successfully received from Hotmail.

They have disappeared from the logs since the problem started; my

[Bonesdad]

Negative vibes here too...have been unable to collect email via tbird
for 2-3 days now. any new info?

[Kusal]

Am also waiting for an update.

[MSW]

Also waiting for an update. Can't get email...

[mwebi]

Same for me: Negatives vibes since ~1-2 days

[Troy Mueller]

I'm getting negative Vibes since yesterday too. Guess Hotmail changed
some stuff, any logs needed?

[Ilan Copelyn]

I suspect anyone using WebMail to read their hotmail will be having this
problem, so I doubt whether it's worth anyone's while for everyone to
keep confirming this.

What are the downsides of using the POP3 connection (as mentioned by
Gary in this thread) versus the WebMail connection? I've just switched
over to POP3 and from what I can see the only downside is that the mail
does not get marked as read on Hotmail - i.e. even after I've downloaded
and read the mail in Thunderbird, the email still shows up as unread
when I log in to Hotmail via their website.

If this is the only plus of the WebMail connection then I think I'll
just stick with POP3.

[bobo]

that does not work any longer since yesterday.

[Rob]

Me too. I tried the account settings "Connect with HTTPS" but it did
not work.

Rob

[Ilan]

Same problem for me too - Sending of password did not succeed. Mail

server localhost responded: negative vibes from

'myaccount'@hotmail.com
and the HTTPS trick mentioned above doesn't help.

I'm also happy to send logs if it will help.

Thanks for the free apps,
Ilan

[Chris Clifton]

If you have filters set up on the Hotmail site to filter mails into
custom folders, the POP3 connection will not download from these
folders. The POP3 protocol only allows Thunderbird or any other email
client to download from the inbox of the server, all other folders and
sub-folders are invisible to a POP3 client.

--

[MSW]

You can't get your junk mail or sent mail with only POP, so you still
have to login to the web site to see if you are missing any messages
in the junk folder. Defeats the purpose of a windows based email
client.

[B@loo]

There was a time when webmail extensions under development were available in a folder of this Google group... does anyone know where to find them now?

Hi, can you please compile a version for Thunderbird 2.x and share it on google docs ? I've tried modifying the install.rdf file minversion argument and force-installed the addon, however, the Webmail addon throws the message : "hotmail.com is an unsupported domain".

Thank you very much for your support.

[Pablo Fernando Simbaña]

I tried this and got this message "The STAT command did not succeed.
Error getting message number and sizes. Mal server localhost
responded: negavitve vibes from em...@msn.com"

Today digsby released an update to fix this hotmail authentication
error as well ^^

Thanks for creating and maintaining this great thunderbird addon

I'm now using 1.3.1, if I'm using "use HTTPS automatically" then I
receive the following error: Sending of password did not succeed.

Mail server localhost responded: negative vibes from

myac...@hotmail.com

If I use "don't use HTTPs automatically" I get The STAT command did

not succeed. Error getting message number and
sizes. Mail server localhost responded: negative vibes from

myac...@hotmail.com.

Thank you for working on this, I've used this extension for years now.

[woest85]

For me with version 1.3.1 it still comes up with the following error:

> The STAT command did not succeed. Error getting message number and

It doesn't matter if I have https enabled or not on the hotmail
website, both give this error. If you want logs let me know plz :)

Ok this is very strange.
I have 4 hotmail accounts under 4 domains.

Version 1.3.2 seems to be working here. 1 account (of 3) was giving
the STAT error with 1.3.1, and this seems to be resolved in 1.3.2.

I don't know how "logging in from the Yahoo website" would make any
difference, but I tried that and am still getting negative vibes.

[James David Walley]

Actually, it seems you don't only have to log in, but specifically open
the "new Yahoo mail inbox" once, then it starts to work fine. Thanks.

1.3.2 works. Thanks so much for getting this back up and running.

Not unusual for there to be an action needed to be taken by you, in
person, on the website. Something like acknowledging a message, clearing
a "Captcha" or some other action that the extension cannot do for you.
