uh, since you've blanked out the email you are trying to send to, and the server in question, it is difficult to advise you
if you connect to hotmail's smtp server from your ntl connection, and try to send to a hotmail email address, since the hotmail smtp server is authoritive for that email, it may accept it (may not due to blocking dhcp ranges for spamming)
it will not accept email to say; freeserve users, because that would be an open relay.
NTL's email servers will accept email to anywhere because we are on their ip space.
