E-mail to Hotmail accounts rejected 08/10 7:30 a.m.

Some of UDMERCY e-mail accounts were compromised caused by users revealing there e-mail account credentials to spammers, resulting in abuse of those accounts. As a result, MSN Hotmail (and possibly some other Internet Service Providers) is rejecting e-mail messages originated at University . ITS works to resolve the situation and we expect to have this problem solved soon.

Again: One should never reveal personal data as a response to an e-mail, no matter how convincing that e-mail may be. In this case, one "only" disturbed free e-mail flow and caused inconvenience for thousands of University e-mail users; negligent behavior like this may cause much more grave consequences.
