hotmail blocking some domains?
My mails which I am using my own domain sending through my ISP smtp is always being rejected by hotmail. There is no reasons given except Delivery to the following recipients failed. The recipent email is there as I have just recieved her email. I am beginning to think hotmail is blacklisting my domain.

Last I checked, there was no setting in Hotmail to completely disable spam filtering. The lowest setting (highest is addressbook only) still filters some messages.

The thing that probably happened. Is some larger companies like Hotmail, AOL, and Yahoo!. They buy a list of IP Addresses from ISP's in order to block them because of them being either residential accounts or even business.

(As I am oft to do, I would highlight this as an example of how email filtering fails as a solution to the problem of unwanted mail). |

I'm forced to send e-mails to Hotmail addresses all the time as a
part of my business. I've discovered that plain-text messages only get accepted as Inbox mail. Anything sent HTML format gets sent to junk using their default setting. What is in the subject line etc doesn't seem to matter. It doesn't matter which e-mail provider I use, except of course Hotmail.. which I refuse to! |
