Hoi zäme
I have a couple of customers complaining they are unable to send emails
to hotmail - typically they see rejects such as this:
550 SC-001 (BAY004-MC5F11) Unfortunately, messages
from 88.198.198.124
weren't sent. Please contact your Internet service provider since part
of their network is on our block list.
It doesn't affect all customers and checking our logs, it appears to
have started 18/1. Prior to that we had no problems delivering
outbound mails to hotmail, since then I see 149 bounces with the
message above).
The customers are on dynamic ranges from Swisscom, UPC and e.g. Virgin
(in the UK). Has anyone seen something similar?

Hello,
it could be that you problem is related to DMARC.
big changes are coming, big email providers like gmail,yahoo and I guess
also hotmail are implemeting DMARC. Use of Strict DMARC Policies will
make this big providers reject emails.

The senders have not published any DMARC entries - also, sometimes it
works, sometimes it doesn't. I have just tried sending mails
to "postmaster(a)hotmail.com" from a couple of our servers at Hetzner,
same error message. Other messages go through fine. (28 today sofar).

It is truly weird. Using the same sender and same path, one email
to "some.user(a)hotmail.com" is accepted, another
to "postmaster(a)hotmail.com" is rejected.

They are probably ramping up rejection rates slowly, as suggested here:

Thanks for everyone's suggestions!

Wow at least you got a feedback,
which is more than i got the last 3 years
i have given up, my client know mail delivery to microsoft mailservice
is not guaranted, and i recomend to convince mailpartner for a change
to a more cooperative Mailprovider.
if i´m able to route microsoft mail via relayhosts on IP-ranges/AS
which are not blocked, but i wont spend much time anymore in
timeconsuming workarrounds.
