Anyway, since hundreds of mailboxes in our server are unable right
to to send emails to Hotmail, we need to find some alternative.
Relaying emails with an @hotmail.com destination through another
email server that isn't blocked seems to be the more plausible
alternative. So, i added the parameter to Postfix:
relayhost = [our.email.server]
Where our.email.server is our relay mails server address and
reloaded Postfix, but Postfix keeps sending email using the local
machine without trying to use the relay host. Am i missing
something. Is there any other parameter (other than relayhost
necessary for the server to relay emails to another server)?
Absent the logs I can only guess, but my best WAG here is that you
should look at "-r" in "man postsuper".
Ok it's working now, i had a transport in the transport maps that
overrided the relayhost, duh...
My bad, i am sorry, problem solved.

To piggyback a little on my own question, i now have set up a relayhost
specifically for any emails sent to the hotmail.com domain, in the
transport maps:
hotmail.com smtp:[my.email.relay.server]
It's working great.
I previously had hotmail.com assigned to a slow transport to only send
one email to hotmail every five minutes in order not to tax Microsoft's
poor email servers:
hotmail.com slow:
Now i'm wondering, is there any way to combine both the transports?
First, emails sent to @hotmail.com should be queued on the server (using
the slow transport), only then sent to the relay host?
