Blame it on Microsoft. Their Hotmail service (or whatever it is called today) has been set to bounce emails from various sources including automated systems. In an attempt to block spam they're blocking almost all other automated systems. The only way to get around this is for the individual users of Hotmail to petition Microsoft to let email from lner.info to get through.

Also, I get all the bounced emails. I need to see bounced emails from lner.info so that I can keep track of things, but there were far too many coming through from hotmail. (there were also some coming from people who left "watches" in place but then left, their email expired, etc,etc).
