Hmm. IIRC hotmail uses some commercial anti-spam tool (which is far less
effective than spamassassin or any of the other tools...), google .groups in
news.admin.net-abuse.email, I can't remember the name right now.
I've no idea how this helps you solving your problem. Probably a case for
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (but there's a chance that this will just prolong the
blocking, given the average cluelessness of their abuse desk). Perhaps asking
in the newsgroup I mentioned will provide a solution - lots of clueful people
there.

The only application I've seen in which the complete removal of vast
sections of code makes it run better, and when I eventually found a
section of code with a comment, the comment was in Spanish.
