Why am I losing or not receiving email delivered to Hotmail, Gmail, And AOL?
Some email accounts, like Hotmail, Gmail, and AOL, consider email to be junk, and automatically move it into your junk folder or delete it. If you are using another email service, check your preferences or options to modify your junk mail settings. In Hotmail, you can fix this by clicking the Options link next to the Address Book tab. Look at the Junk Mail Filter and Junk Mail Deletion links. Turn Off the Junk Mail Filter and set Junk Mail Deletions to Delayed. When they are delivered to your Junk E-Mail folder, please place a checkmark next to the messages and click “Not Junk” to move them to your inbox. The Junk E-Mail folder will be deleted within a few days, and you will lose the messages if you do not do this. If you do not find the emails in your Junk E-mail folder, it may be because your settings allow Junk E-Mail to be deleted before it is even delivered.
