Email not getting to Hotmail accounts

[stuffandthings]

Hi, sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum, i realise this may not be an asp problem.

I have a web form (using the CDO object) that sends out a confirmation to the users email address when the submit button is pressed. It works perfectly well providing the user does not have a hotmail account (and possibly other free email service accounts that i am yet to test). The emails are not turning up in the junk folder either, they are just not showing up at all.

Is there anything i can do in the asp to ensure these mails reach their destination? Has anyone else encountered this problem? :confused:

Any suggestions would be well appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

One place to start is to add a SPF. Hotmail uses SPF among other things to determine if an email is legitimate. Use www.dnsreport.com to determine if you have a SPF. Check out www.openspf.org for more info on what it is and how to create one.
