Subject: Re: [NEWGEN] ISP problems for a couple of members

I see that these bounced addresses have MSN for their ISP, which is
notorious for changing its incoming e-mail from msn.com to hotmail.msn.com.
I did a "reply" to an individual some time ago using their msn.com e-mail
address as I received it, and my reply bounced. I was familiar with the
problem, so I injected "hotmail." before the msn.com, and it went through.
One would think that switcheroo was consistent, but in a separate experiment
later the msn.com address did go through without a bounce. To make matters
worse, sometimes the msn.com for other divisions of MSN must be prefixed by
something else other than "hotmail" to go through without a bounce, but I
forget what it is at present.
Sad thing is that some of the people that have MSN for an ISP are
wondering why they don't receive some of their e-mail. Their replies are
bouncing, unknown to them.
