This sounds like DNS has not been completely configured for your domains.
Assuming that you are trying to send a message from your hotmail account
to your list, when you hit 'send', the hotmail server trys to lookup the
address for your domain, but can't find the mail server.
You'll have to go to whoever you registered your domains with and if they
are handling DNS for you make sure that your domain has an MX record. If
they don't handle DNS directly, then they should have an entry that points
at the server that does handle it (your friend's machine?) and make sure
that you have a proper MX record there.
Hope this helps.

I don't mind going nowhere as long as it's an interesting path.
