Look at the "SMTP-" lines (where E-mail is sent out, rather than the SMTPD
lines, where the E-mail is received). Look for "MAIL FROM:", "RCPT TO:",
"DATA", and "." lines. Look for the line after the "." line (which the
same ID number), and you should see "250 OK" or something similar. If it
begins with a 2, you've sent the mail to Hotmail, and they are responsible
for delivering it.
