I use a mac and have POP email set up but i frequently log in to my hotmail account to monitor emails, etc.

Recently (a week ago) people were informing me that their emails to me were bouncing back. On logging in to my account ALL of my emails except the most recent have been deleted. There is no reason for this have happened. i have no 'accidently' deleted anything, changed any settings or done anything untoward to make this happen. I am also still experiencing problems receiving new mail.

This is very worrying for me as it my professional email account so its imperative i have access to prior communications with potential employers and clients.

I have looked this issue up and it appears many people are experiencing this at the moment. I would very much appreciate someone contacting me as soon as possible about this matter so i can fix the problem and get on with my job unimpeded. 

I thank you in advance for your help.
