You have reached the limit of Live Mail ID ...;

Hi,

when I try to create a new Windows Live ID I allways get the message that I
have reached the limit of accounts I can create for the day!
Now retrying for 48h without success, allways same message.

My modem is a cable modem, and I do not have ( AFAIK) fixed IP adress

Any idea ( except doing creation from work PC, which is not allowed ...)

TIA for advice !

Phil

Stop for the day. Try again the next day. I don't know the limit, or if it
can be overridden, or why they would override it. The limit is there to
prevent abuse of the service.

Sounds to me like you're creating more than a few email accounts, and that's
why Windows Live stopped you.....

No. Trying to do one account for having an email for promotion action.
Answered that promo to soon after cerating account: promo got lost ( I
imagine "som" time" has to elapse before account is really active).
So tried a second one and did a mistake, so tried third. Then got message.
Tried again 24h later : same message.
Tried 44 or 40h later : same. So there must be an error in their control of
account creation somehow. I imagin they check by IP adress, and do not know
if my IP is static ( I didn't require this when I signed with my provider,
but who knows)

Any other ideas ?
