Has Sympatico broken its hotmail.ca service?
For several years now, my father has been able to access his Sympatico mail through their hotmail.ca webmail service. Something changed a few weeks ago and he is consistently presented with an error message that reads as follows:
Redirection limit for this URL exceeded. Unable to load the requested page. This may be caused by cookies that are blocked.
When contacted, Sympatico tech support confidently offered that the solution is to delete ALL stored cookies — thanks for the effort, Sympatico. As it turns out, deleting cookies for live.com, hotmail.ca and msn.com solved the problem. However, adding those domains to the approved list of cookie providers does not solve any problems; my father still has to delete the relevant cookies at the beginning of each web session.
What has changed with Sympatico’s hotmail.ca service that Sympatico is keeping secret? Does anyone have a solution?

I have been experiencing this problem for months. For sometime I could seem to solve it by deleting the bookmark in Firefox and signing in again and bookmarking again. In the last few days nothing works. I can bring my mail in through Outlook but if MSN junked an e-mail it would be inaccessible.
