Can't send Windows Live emails (hotmail) on phone

I have a Verizon phone (the Alias) on which I have been able to manage my
hotmail email for several months. About 4 weeks ago I started having problems
sending and replying to email through my phone. I can view my emails fine,
but whenever I try to reply or send a new email I get this error message:
"The service you are trying to reach is temporarily unavailable. Please try
again later. For more about Windows Live, please visit our PC site at
http://mobile.live.com."

I have already contacted Verizon and they tell me that the problem is with
my hotmail/windows live account.

I can use my email just fine on a PC, no problems. I can view my email just
fine on my phone. I cannot send new emails or reply to emails with my phone
(and used to be able to for many months).

Sometimes I would get this same error message (many months ago) and I would
simply try again later like the message says and everything would be fine. I
assumed it was a temporary problem. But now I get this error EVERY time I try
to reply or send a new email and this has lasted for weeks.... so now I'm
trying to investigate to figure out what needs to be fixed. I have already
sent an email to Windows mobile live (they have no customer service phone
number that I can find) and have not heard back from them yet.

Any advice?!

I have an Alias too, same problem. I also have a Nextel, and it does the
same thing. No one seems to be able to help.
