Email sent to webmaster@python.org from Paul Backhouse <pcbackhouse@hotmail.co.uk>

I'm having issues registring with bugs.python.org. I enter correct details, username "paulb" email "pcbackhouse@hotmail.co.uk" etc and get taken to the "Registration in Progress" page. However I never receive a confirmation email. I've tried to register a few time now.

There is a problem delivering email to hotmail.com. We have three messages to this email address pending in the outgoing queue; postfix says "Connection timed out". A plain telnet to mx2.hotmail.com gives a TCP timeout. I have filed a support request with hotmail.

Microsoft has now responded saying that they can't find anything off-hand, and have requested further information, which I have provided.
