I am having similar issues
My IMail is set so that the check mark is NOT there on "Refuse NULL <> Senders"
I send an email to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and I DON'T get a bounce back
Could it be that Hotmail does not send bounces???

You don't have to set it up; IMail automatically will send and receive
bounce messages.
I'm guessing that you checked the "Refuse NULL <> Senders" option (in the
SMTP Security settings), which Ipswitch still has set up so that you don't
realize you are breaking your mail server. Checking that box will prevent
bounce messages from being received from other servers.
If you are talking about bounce messages not being generated for incoming
E-mail (IE someone on the Internet sends an E-mail to a nonexistent user on
your domain), then you probably have a "nobody" alias set up to receive all
misaddressed mail.
