Don't understand why you would like to use hotmail, any working/relaying
SMTP (sendmail) server would be valid.
Below is some sample code that works but is not really 'hot stuff', it was
taken from the mail::sendmail documentation available at www.perl.com and
www.perldoc.com

use Mail::Sendmail;


  print "Testing Mail::Sendmail version $Mail::Sendmail::VERSION\n";
  print "Default server: $Mail::Sendmail::mailcfg{smtp}->[0]\n";
  print "Default sender: $Mail::Sendmail::mailcfg{from}\n";


  %mail = (
      To      => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
      #From    => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
      #Bcc     => 'Someone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Someone else [EMAIL PROTECTED]',
      # only addresses are extracted from Bcc, real names disregarded
      Cc      => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
      # Cc will appear in the header. (Bcc will not)
      Subject => 'Test message',
      'X-Mailer' => "Mail::Sendmail version $Mail::Sendmail::VERSION",
  );


  $mail{Smtp} = '194.7.1.47';
  $mail{from} = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
  $mail{'X-custom'} = 'My custom additionnal header';
  $mail{'mESSaGE : '} = "The message key looks terrible, but works.";
  # cheat on the date:
  $mail{Date} = Mail::Sendmail::time_to_date( time() - 86400 );


  if (sendmail %mail) { print "Mail sent OK.\n" }
  else { print "Error sending mail: $Mail::Sendmail::error \n" }


  print "\n\$Mail::Sendmail::log says:\n", $Mail::Sendmail::log;

Has anyone by chance ever got MAIL::SENDMAIL to work with Hotmail specified 
as the mail server?
