We had this problem earlier this year.  MSN tech support figured this out
for us, and I quote their reply to me, below:

>Hello Roberta,
>Thank you for writing to MSN Hotmail
>
>Hotmail and several other servers are unable to send to domains that list
only an IP in 
>the MX record of the DNS.  This problem is easily resolved by adding a
CNAME record to 
>the DNS and listing the canonical name in the MX record.
>
>MSN Hotmail Customer Support


Hope this helps!
