Hotmail blackholing certain IP ranges ?

Wed Apr 25 18:22:18 UTC 2007

Does anyone have a clue why hotmail is appearantly blocking certain IP ranges ?

I provided a new server for a customer in his own IP subnet which is 
a part of a /20 we announce, but for some reason all mail sent to 
@hotmail.com addresses disappears.

He has another server in a /24 we announce which is still part of 
another network and that works like a charm.

None of our subnets are blacklisted in any spamfilter I can find, so 
i'm a bit puzzeled on what's up here.

If any hotmail netadmin is reading this list, can you please check if 
81.26.212.0/26 is blocked in any way (It's part of 81.26.208.0/20 
originating from AS39556)

According to the mailserver logs all the mail is properly accepted by 
the hotmail relays, never to be seen again after that.
