Sigh.

hotmail.com is now completly in shambles. It refuses almost all mail from
our list, [log in to unmask], and from several other mailservers
that I administer. Most often because of connection resets or time outs.
What ever happened to that mailserver ? Did they (gasp) convert to NT ? Too
much spamming ?

problems in DNS :
- hotmail.com has a single MX record, pointing to mail.hotmail.com. Not
even a backup mail-server ?
- mail.hotmail.com has 2 MX records, both pointing to itself.
