I logged into my hotmail account via the hotmail webpage and did not see a problem.  I use outlook for my email.

 

Thanks!

I want to combine two calendars into one - can you copy information from one calendar to another ?
I received an email stating that my email is corrupt and in order to upgrade me for free to better security you need some privacy and personally identifiable information.  How do I know this email really came from you?  How do I verify this is an authentic email?
So my Macbook SSD is filling up quite fast.
Outlook main identity is currently consuming 7GB and i need to preserve as much space as possible.

Is there a data clean up or compression tool for the main identity folder like there was on the windows version ??
At what point will outlook start to slow down due to a large main identity folder ? or does it not have the same issues as the windows version does with all the information being stored in a single data file ?

Alternatively, there is 3.7G in the "message attachments" folder, can this folder be deleted occasionally or is this where outlook actually stores all the attachments that are downloaded within the emails themselves ?

Have received an email asking me for my name, username, password from Hotmail Team. There is threat to disable my account if not responded to within 24 hours giving this information. Supposedly discontinuing unused accounts. Is this genuine, or not?
  the past mount it's says
 "We're unable to retrieve information for this section at this time. We're sorry for the inconvenience, please try again later."
