An unrouteable address means your server cannot resolve the address.

When sending mail doesn't connect and doesn't show up in the server log, then you need more information from your sending postmaster; in this case hotmail.

There's no way to trace it on your end if it doesn't even show up in the logs.

Your server isn't on any of the standard email blocklists.

The user root cannot accept email directly. You need to create an alias pointing root to some other email address.

Hi,

I have the same problem as TS, how can I create an alias pointing root to some other email adress?
 
The easy way is to create a .forward file in the /root directory with the email address you want the root email to be forwarded to.
