Hello everyone,

Thanks for your replies. The reply I got from my hosting company was:

"A small group of our servers are currently being blocked by hotmail's
broken smartscreen technology, we are in contact with MSN regarding
this, but can you please use an 3rd party smtp (such as one provided by
your ISP) to guarantee delivery. This isn't isolated to hostroute,
Microsoft's Smartscreen is a headache for virtually all mail providers,
google can tell you more."

Checked a few of the blacklists and I'm not on them so it looks like
it's just Hotmail.

Thanks
Ashley

There is a general blacklist checking tool at

http://openrbl.org/client/

Which will check many blacklists and whitelists and link you through to
the relevant pages to remove yourself, although its often the hosting
provider that has to do this.
