	You can certainly try their SNDS system, and try to follow 
whatever guidelines they have at their postmaster website.  As far as 
that goes, it doesn't sound significantly different from what AOL 
does.

	However, at some point it sounds to me like you will probably 
need to decide how much you want your e-mail to get through their 
filters.  If you want it badly enough, then you will probably pay to 
use their bonded sender program.  Otherwise, you may be forced to 
eliminate all hotmail users from your lists, or at least live with 
the fact that most mail from you to hotmail is going to be blocked or 
dropped.


	Good luck!  If you find out anything that you think may be of 
interest to the broader mail list admin community, please let us know.
