    Hello :)

    It's possible the remote mail servers have blocked traffic from your IP address. Check with telnet to see if that's the case. EX:

    Code:
    telnet remote-mail-server.com 25
    Replace "remote-mail-server.com" with the hostname of the remote mail server you are attempting to send to.

    Thank you.

    It indicates that Hotmail is blocking email connections from your server. You may want to review their mail troubleshooting document:

    Windows Live Mail Troubleshooting

    Thank you.
