Dave,

Did you manage to fix this? We are seeing a similar issue at one of our
sites in the last week or so, and hotmail are being useless when it
comes to helping.

We have already installed all the current updates, and virus defs are
current and working, and our IP's dont show on any RBLs etc.

Hi Dave

It sounds like some kind of filter.

A good test would be to telnet from the SBS Server to the hotmail server on
port 25 and see if you can drop mail.

telnet 65.54.244.8 25
ehlo yourdomain.com
mail from:user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
rcpt to:user@xxxxxxxxxxx
data
type test data here
