Yes, you'll find them start to come through now.

Hotmail accounts are still not receiving emails from my site, all the other providers I've tested seem to be fine, albeit slow...but I can live with that for now.

Same here, but how new users will receive the email activation for my website if they use Outlook :/

This issue is still persisting, I have sent several test emails in the last few hours (including manually sent emails) and still nothing is being received by any hotmail/outlook accounts from my x10 address.

Its not just X10. I signed up on another free hosting service, threw up a piece of forum software, and the email registration wont work there either. No idea what the problem is but it dont appear to be just on this server.

This is most likely outlook/hotmail/live Mail blocking our server. Not much we can do.

That's a poor response IMO, I understand I cannot expect much from a free hosting provider, but to say that we cannot send emails to hotmail users and you are unable to do anything is ridiculous.
I might not mind so much if it were a small, relatively unknown email provider, but c'mon - almost everyone has a hotmail account.

Microsoft's outlook/hotmail/live Mail is blocking their (x10hosting) server
What do you think they (x10hosting) can do about it ??

They could try talking to them to see why they're being blocked and try to come to a resolution on behalf of most likely hundreds of their users affected in this way...but like I said, I don't expect much from a free provider, so I understand if they don't want to dedicate the resources to this.

Have you ever "Talked" to Microsoft about this type of issue ??

I have other hosts that Microsoft blocks the Email from - and two (2) they do not block

x10hosting is more than free-hosting - they have the "resources" but they also know (like most of us) that it would be a waste of resources

Agree with you, i have other hostings that cant send mails to Outlook through php.

As I guess wasn't implied, we are looking into it, but it's not really our greatest concern, we're currently starting to plan migrations to new platforms for our servers and that's taking up a lot of our time.

Ok, I concede that it may be a waste of resources and now leafypiggy has said it is being looked into I feel a bit better about the issue...it's still a hassle, but I'm sure I can create a workaround in the interim.
