I'm not so sure.

It may be just a matter of logging verbosity, but we get a more definitive
response than that.

Vertical spacing inserted to offset MUA formating... this all on one line in the
log:

=====

2006-11-17 10:30:56 1Gl0zm-000C6X-0A => ob_fuscated@???

F=<obfus_cated@???> P=<obfus_cated@???> R=dnslookup

T=remote_smtp S=1753 H=mx4.hotmail.com [65.54.244.104]:25

C="250 <455D8F5F.4040406@???> Queued mail for delivery" QT=2s DT=2s

=======

Note the part:

C="250 .." and following - Hotmail's reply.

As stated - it may just be a 'verbosity' difference.

All we have on that box is:

log_selector = +all -all_parents -queue_run -arguments
