No wonder Comcast is keeping shtum about blocking Hotmail. This looks like some overzealous security that went a little bit wrong.
It's easy to dislike Hotmail; it's full of spam, easily hackable and nothing screams 'newbie' like a Hotmail address. But a security threat, I think not. Probably just a spam filter set too high.
