I am unable to send email to hotmail. I thought I had a misconfiguration

send emails to hotmail without an error or undeliverable report, none
show up in my hotmail account unless I reply to an email I sent from my
hotmail. Does anyone have any ideas?
  


Have you looked in your Hotmail junk folder?


Be lucky,

Look, Dave, almost all people on this list and virtually anywhere in planet 
Internet have dumped sendmail years ago and moved to some modern MTA like 
exim or postfix or some such. It is highly unlikely you get a spot-on answer 
here. Maybe, there are still sendmail mailing lists around. You better try 
there.

That said, it could be that hotmail doesn't like your Envelop-To: header. 
Sendmail can, without a doubt, re-write this header, but I have forgotten how 
to do it about ten years ago. ;-)
