I used to be able to send group messages without any problems but suddenly when I try to send a group message it only goes to 5 members of my group.

Is this is a new thing that we are restricted to small groups or has something gone wrong with my Windows Live account ?

I keep unticking the group message box , but it keeps reverting and I have noticed all messages on a issues appear to be linked together , all to different e-mail addresses , but they should not be. I have reset passwords, gone through MacFee settings done all scans for viruses . It appears someone is able to set this so all manner of people see a message, and I keep saying no to group messages, and its compromising my position as people are able to see everything.

I have to reset my Conversation Settings over and over again to Group messages by conversation.   It just doesn't stick for more than a week or 2.   It reverts back to Show messages individually.  I've this problem before, but it is much worse since going to Outlook.    I have 2 Hotmail accounts.  I run one in Chrome and one in Firefox so I don't have to sign in and out all the time to check my mail.   The problem seems to be worse in Firefox.    It is very frustrating especially when having an ongoing email conversation with a person and the message you want to look at again is found several  pages down in Hotmail as the group setting as reverted back to individual with me doing anything.

Any suggestions.   It seems like this is a common problem.   Found lots of posts out here on this issue.   Since it is an important one, Hotmail didn't do a very good job testing that the features we want were also available without problems when going to Outlook.

Thank you,

Hello,

After I inadvertently clicked on the right side bar where says,
Go beyond email with
outlook.com
upgrade now for free

automatically switched me instantly to outlook.com

I was in the middle of composing an email so I clicked the back button and finished composing.
After clicking send it switched to outlook.com
I found the gear icon and switched back to standard Hotmail.
That is when my inbox started to "Group messages by conversation"

Why did my Hotmail inbox revert to "Group messages by conversation" after this happened?
Is there away to permanently eliminate this ad side bar? The clicking area it quite large and is easy to inadvertently click on.

Thanks
