    Can no longer move e-mails from Junk folder to inbox

    For the past week I have been unable to move any messages delivered to my junk mail folder to ANY other folder that I have (such as my inbox).  Prior to a week ago, I performed this function almost daily!!  Now I get the following message when I try to move anything out of the junk mail folder :

    We're doing some maintenance to improve the service. We apologize for getting in your way. Please try again in a few minutes. If it's been more than an hour, tell us you're still waiting.

    ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!

    Hi vitotisha,

    The error that you encounter occurs when the server that hosts your account is undergoing maintenance. This usually takes a couple of hours. Try moving messages now since the process might be completed. If the issue persists, I suggest that you optimize your browser. This is to ensure that it isn’t contributing to the issue you’ve reported. Here’s the direct link for steps on how to do this:

    Re: Can no longer move e-mails from Junk folder to inbox

    I've tried accessing my hotmail account from several different computers at different locations - all attempts met with the same negative result.  Is the "server that hosts my account" you refer to a hotmail server or some other ISP?  Since I am getting the same result on multiple systems, I doubt that it's an issue with the browser.  Has anyone there checked on the status of the server that hosts my account?
