Offline messages going to hotmail?

Hi,

For a couple of days now, I've been recieving MSN messages via email instead
of the message window. This has happened when I am both online and offline,
although in the former case I've been told that I appear offline.

If these are offline messages being sent to me, why are they going to my
hotmail account? Shouldn't they arrive in my message window when I next log
in?

Shak

Longer messages can sometimes be sent as emails, depending on the character
count.

Not always long messages, I've had messages that have just been a short
sentence appear in my contact's inbox. It is something that the WLM team
are aware of.

Even I'm not sure why this happens sometimes. I've yet to figure it out.

This is a known issue awaiting feedback from the managed beta testers (check
the private newsgroups for infor about that). Hopefully will be fixed in the
next refresh.

Trouble is, no-one can reproduce it. I think a lot of people have had it
happen, but no-one can work out how to do it again. And let's face it,
if Jonathan can't work it out....
