I have used hotmail for free for more than ten years. Today I received a message from Microsoft telling me that I don't have enough space and I cannot send or receive messages. They say I have to pay monthly or annually to be able to do that. I have deleted almost all my messages from Hotmail, but the message is still there. I feel Microsoft is forcing me to pay for hotmail now.

I'm having the same problems, Sat here yesterday deleting thousands of emails. To find out they don't even delete. Your forced to pay for storage now to access your emails. Even if you try delete to make storage you can't.
Thanks alot Microsoft.
