That's exactly what I get when my daughter tries to send a message to
hotmail from my server with a hotmail return address.  They accept the
message and then dump it.

I believe the only way around this is to have your mail server
authenticate with the hotmail server.  You might be able to use sendmail's
access database for this.  I do this for some server I send to.
