Sweepstakes rules specify an email address that doesn't exist #2
Description
The email address in section 12 of the sweepstakes rules (sweepstakesrules/sweepstakesrules.md) doesn't seem to exist.
I supposedly won one of the t-shirt drawings, but the DM to me on X only contained a msft.it link to my entry, not a form to claim my prize:
Hello! Thanks for participating in the VS50M sweepstakes! Please redeem your t-shirt, by July 7, here: https://msft.it/6010S2zmn
Happy coding!
A reply to this DM went unanswered, and neither did a comment on another @code tweet. This led me to emailing the address mentioned in the Official Rules, only to get this error back from Microsoft's SMTP servers:
550 5.4.1 Recipient address rejected: Access denied. For more information see https://aka.ms/EXOSmtpErrors [[SJ1PEPF00002324.namprd03.prod.outlook.com](http://sj1pepf00002324.namprd03.prod.outlook.com/) 2025-07-03T05:35:14.896Z 08DDB6956FE2BEBD]
This issue is my last attempt at reaching out. 😅 I figure if the rules are on Github, why not reach out with a genuine issue?
