I was using my hotmail email address on my resume for job searching, but have had to switch to a gmail account because I have now had 4 recruiters who have tried to email me and I have not received their emails.

2 of the recruiters are people I was succesfully trading emails with, then a subsequent email they sent was not received.  So I received prior emails from them, but not later emails.

The other 2 recruiters, this was the first email they tried to send me, I do not know what their email address is.

I checked my junk folders and there have not been any emails placed here.  I confirmed my Reply-to address is set to current address, my junk mail settings are set to Standard, I have no email rules set.

I did add 1 of the recruiters to my safe sender list thinking this was a possible solution but still did not receive the email, but I don't see why I would have to do that as I received an email from her successfully previously, and never placed her on the blocked sender list.

Prior to these recent occurrences, I had stopped receiving emails from my town with automotive renewals notices - when I asked town hall about it they indicated many hotmail users had complained to them the emails were not being received, so this is not a new issue for my email address, but has now become critical as this is affecting my job search!
