Check the junk mail folder in the hotmail account. I have seen this before.

Also, if NSLOOKUP comes back empty, then Exchange's DNS lookups are also coming back empty and you can look at the potential DNS problem. hth, Bubba G -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2003 11:46 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Not sending to Hotmail??? Hi, a couple of days ago, a client said that they could not send email to any addresses at hotmail.com. I tried myself from their server and indeed, you cant. I checked the DNS settings on the server and looked at what the domain hotmail.com resolves to, and it looks ok. The ISP say there is no problem, MSN say there is no problem they know about, and hotmail rekon there is no problem but are asking for more info. Its MSX5.5 sp4 on Win2k sp4. It runs a DNS server with forwarders to the internet DNS servers, and every other domain accepts mail fine, but messages to hotmail just sit in the IMC send queue retrying and saying that the host is unreachable. I have recreated the internet mail connector and reapplied service pack, but no change. Any ideas at all?? Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=& lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=?=eng lish To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
