Ditto. They appear to use some strange form of greylisting combined with 
blocking. What seems to help is SPF and PTRs that match the EHLO your MTAs will 
send. We didn't implement Domain Keys / DKIM. 

On a related note, don't get me started on Hotmail. They used to (still do?) 
silently swallow mail into a black hole after accepting it. No NDR, no spam 
folder, just good ol' mail shredding without anyone knowing. Again, SPF and 
PTRs seem to help. 

Oh yeah, make sure you're not sending spam to them. That might help too. ;)
