Hotmail Issues

A number of people are contacting me saying they keep getting delivery delayed messages when trying to email hotmail addresses, something like this:

Deferred: Connection timed out with mx2.hotmail.com.
Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours
Will keep trying until message is 5 days old

I know it's been ongoing for around a fortnight now, and only seems to happen with F2S mails going through to Hotmail, but a simple dnsrport from dnsreport.com shows that all the MX Servers time out most of the time.

Latest update is there are no problems. However this bounce message is impressive, even for Microsoft.

Connection timed out with mx4.hotmail.com.
Message could not be delivered for 5 days
Message will be deleted from queue.

MS Have now told me that it is F2S's problem, not theirs.
