Well, then they have some other obscure reason to silently delete all mail from me to my daughter's Hotmail account.
I have found hotmail to be about the least reliable of the free webmail providers in terms of actually getting email through to their users. I think I average maybe 25% of sent email that actually arrives when the destination is hotmail.com -- the rest is usually silently dropped, though I occasionally get a "mailbox is unavailable" bounce message.
"Avoid hotmail" is the best solution. I've given up on hotmail users and pretty much ignore it. If you're using hotmail and you need to get in touch with me, phone me or send me a fax if you didn't get a reply to your email.
