I was suffering the same problem about 7 years ago on my own personal mail server. I discovered that if I padded out the message headers with a load of junk headers to push the message size up beyond about 50KB, then the otherwise exact same message would arrive in the Inbox at Hotmail rather than being blackholed.

I haven't done this for many years though as it was such a terrible hack. I do wonder if it still works, or if the threshold has changed though.
- danieltillett 13y agoI am going to try this out and see if it still works. If it does I will be sacrificing a goat in your honour when the next full moon comes around :)
- mike-cardwell 13y agoIf it still works, please prod me via the contact details in my profile. Would love to find out it still does :)
- danieltillett 13y agoI will. One thing I can add is Microsoft hates the word PayPal - mention paypay in your email and it gets killed, take out that one word and it goes straight through.
