DjNaF Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Hello all;its seems that hotmail as of yesterday stopped delivering emails sent throght mail() functionor even throught anything, if the sender email is @hotmail.comits not a problem of header or something, they did something to stop delivering emails if the sender wasnt verified and if the email wasn't sent throught hotmail's servers!!i dont know if webmail scripts is blocked too or noti am trying to find a solutions for this, i hope someone can helpi've tried to search for hotmail smtp, so that i connect to smtpo server and make the sender looks likeany email @hotmail.com , in this way the sender will be marked as verified from their servers.i want a solution please! they are idiots by blocking this service, many php scripts will face problems!specially forums that sends confirmation email to the new user, and the sender is @hotmail.com not a pop email or any other free email service like yahoo or gmailplease help me Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/16536-hotmail-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chetan Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I dont think that mail() wunt work, it could be a problem with your SMTP provider. I still send email from hotmail addresses and i also send emails from any domain like [email protected] or somthing and it works (i just dont take any server or something, i mean i take this example for you) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/16536-hotmail-problem/#findComment-69121 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nogray Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Hotmail has a very strickt spam filter, when you sending a mail that suppose to come for a hotmail user, but using your own server, hotmail will flag it for you (spammer use this techniqe all the time)Why don't you send the email from your own domain ([email protected]), Also, check your IPs and Domains with black lists and test your spam score (if you're over 1.5, most likely you'll be blocked by hotmail).
