That wouldn't have an effect in this case. The only place it would have 
an effect is where the ISP hasn't set their mail servers up to use SPF 
properly. I use -all and have never had the stated problem.

It is infinitely more useful to state "Mail will *only* come from the 
following IPs" compared to "Mail will probably only come from the 
following IPs but might come from others"

You can't. Spews is a dead list and is no longer updated. Hasn't been 
since the end of last year. Any mail admin still using their data to try 
and attempt to identify spam is *very* out of date.

I doubt yahoo are that incompetent.

I dunno about yahoo, but I got around much of hotmail's filtering by 
creating a router as follows before the remote_smtp one:

hotmail:
   driver              = dnslookup
   condition           = ${if match_domain{${lookup 
dnsdb{>:defer_never,mxh=$domain}{$value}{}}}{*.hotmail.com}{true}{false}}
   transport           = remote_smtp
   headers_remove      = User-Agent
   headers_add         = ${if !def:h_References:{References: 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n}}\
                         ${if !def:h_In-Reply-To:{In-Reply-To: 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n}}
   ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8
   no_more

I notice you're using phpmailer. It wouldn't surprise me if email sent 
with headers like the following causes hotmail to consider your email to 
be more likely to be spam. It seems to be their style:

X-Mailer: PHPMailer [version 1.73]

If the above router doesn't work for you, change "headers_remove" to be:

headers_remove = User-Agent : X-Mailer

And then let us know if it works.
