Can I return to the Hotmail account?

How can I go back to Hotmail from Outlook? a question that many people have done, since a few weeks ago, Microsoft announced the final migration of all Hotmail accounts that were maintained even without upgrading to Outlook mail, although many users remained together to their Hotmail accounts, for better or worse we have to say goodbye to Hotmail forever. But we’ve researched a little more about this.

Since it was released in draft form, to all persons who possessed an email in Hotmail we got an email inviting us to use the previous version of the new email service

Outlook, some persons opted to try it right away (in fact were more than one million who started to using Outlook in its first day of release) but some might expect accustomed at the Hotmail interface and for not know in detail what Outlook has offered.

Go back to Hotmail from Outlook email.

One of the functions used by some persons was the option “back to Hotmail” that was available in the configuration section for all who has decided to test the new Outlook email platform, where we were allowed to return to the old MSN Hotmail interface easily, personally, I made this a couple of times and only took me a few seconds to return to our Hotmail inbox. Now that is a thing of the past as it has been completely removed that option from settings Outlook.com.

Hotmail? … It’s a memory?, Hotmail Calendar??

While it is not possible to return to Hotmail from Outlook mail we still have some memory of the old Hotmail interface in our Outlook inboxes these days, precisely it is the calendar function of Outlook, or we should say even Hotmail calendar because it is almost the last thing that will be left with the appearance of Hotmail and we can check directly to enter from the smart bar higher Outlook.com inbox by clicking on calendar. Maybe from Microsoft have decided that it’s the last to change, we will see later, and was Skydrive which suited the new look, the calendar should do the same in the coming days or months.

As we can see we will have to say goodbye permanently to Hotmail to make way for a new interface, faster and more modern, a design intended to save time and highly effective functionality, if you have not yet created an account in Outlook and it’s interisting for you, we invite you to create an Outlook email account and to use all the services it has for you.

The first and best option is to enable the option that would reset our password every 72 days, making it eve hard to figure it out. Also, the Hotmail itself will tell us how safe our password is, indicating it with levels. To do this we must first log-in to our Hotmail account, and once you’ve done that, head to “more options” that will appear when you click on “options”.

After the page has loaded, click on “Account Details” under the “Manage your Account” title. The page may ask you to re-insert you password, but if it doesn’t a new page will load. On this, just head to where it says “password” and click on change. A new page will load again and you’ll be able to configure it as you wish. When you’re done, click on “Save” and you’ll be taken to the previous page.

Problems with attachments in hotmail?

Problems with attachments?

One of the biggest problem Windows Live Messenger used to have was amount of bytes you could send as an attachment in a mail, and even nowadays this can be a pain in the ass. Sending big files was almost impossible to accomplish, and even today, if you want to attach a file to a mail you’ll have big size-related problems, sometimes being unable to send a file by attachment to a mail and ending up uploading that file in a server, which requires even more time.
But if you’re having troubles sending big files by mail, we may have some tips to help you, since the problems about attachments to a mail are quality, not quantity. Here are some good tips to send big files through mail:
• The limit per file is 10 MB, so if you have a file that pass that limit by 3 or 4 MB, you can compress it using Winrar, you’ll end up with a compressed file that’ll fit a mail perfectly.
• If the file is way bigger than that, you can split it into multiple files, sending many in just one mail, or send them in different mails.
• If you’re having troubles sending a movie, splitting may be impossible and compress it will risk it’s quality, so making a .rar out of it and then splitting may be the best choice.
• You can also upload that movie to Skydrive, something that’ll save time and will be a lot easier than compressing and splitting the file.
As you can see, a problem that in the past was almost impossible to fix can now be fixed in a matter of seconds, and you won’t even have to worry that much of methods to send a file by mail.
