I have checked at the senders end (on hotmail) what is happening. I visited my brother in law to see how he sends e-mails to my wife. He logged on to his hotmail account, and then sent her an e-mail from a "group" he had set up. We sent 4 test e-mails. One using the "group", one by manually typing her e-mail address, etc etc. We then logged out of Hotmail, and still on his PC I logged in to my spare Yahoo mail account, and sent her an e-mail from there. the ONLY one she got was the one sent via my Yahoo account, all four from her brothers Hotmail account were blocked. The faliure return notice from hotmail takes a day to arrive back at my brother in laws.

I hate Hotmail, so I think I will suggest that my wife opens a Yahoo mailbox account and uses that, its a far simpler and less cluttered interface.

Why oh Why is NTL blocking Hotmail users e-mails, and why have they not sent out a circular telling their customers that they will not be receiving e-mails that are sent to them from hotmail users. My wife has missed out on about 10 very important e-mails.

When I checked those links they ask for an IP address of the server that I want to check... how do I find the IP address of the hotmail server that has been blocked by NTL.
