Evening, hope someone can help.

I have a three contract mobile, C510 Sony E
Happy with it, does what I want it to do.
I have it set up with my Hotmail account, and use it daily for mail and
internet (bbc news and sport really)

My problem is I get regular, up to 10 times a day, text messages that I dont
understand

They are SMS, but they come from "EMAIL", ie EMAIL shows as the
sender/number

The body of the text is weired. Heres the most recent one

//WMA:0//SVQa+SxiP8vvjbGJx8Dfl0WwLtFD9LED9ZSeG4Uh0OcVw=//VS

Anyone ?

At a guess I'd say that this was a Wireless Messaging API function to
(try to) tell your phone you've got a new email. Do the texts coincide
with your Hotmail account receiving an email, by any chance?
