I did the same thing, and here's what I got:
$nslookup
Default Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
> set q=any
> eastran.com
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
Non-authoritative answer:
eastran.com nameserver = DNS1.CNMSN.NET
eastran.com nameserver = DNS.BIZCN.com
> set q=mx
> eastran.com
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
*** No mail exchanger (MX) records available for eastran.com
So you need to get your MX records set up for that domain, or you'll
have trouble with more than just hotmail.
