Question

Do emails get queued when Hotmail mailbox is full?

Stephen Molinelli 20

My mailbox for Hotmail was full and I did not receive email messages for a 24 period (yesterday into today). I started deleting emails to make room in my mailbox. Do incoming emails get queued or returned to sender as undeliverable? I have not received any of the emails as of yet.

Hi @Stephen Molinelli ,

Welcome to our forum!

Please kindly understand that the Outlook tag here we mainly focus on general issues about Outlook desktop client. Based on my research, i found that the undeliverable messages will be returned to the sender, and if you need to receive them, the sender will need to send them again.

If the above doesn't help, agree with Dave Patrick, it's suggested that you could post your case in dedicated forum for Outlook.com for more professional advice.

Hope the above help!
