You need to learn to read.

I prefaced it with :-

"Paul.

So how soon does this happen, timewise ?

Does this mean that the NKS mail server is still broken, like when my ISP had
server/routing problems and the nks server bounced SLUG mail after only half
an hour and you unsubscribed me."

At that time, no-one could get to our, or anyone elses servers at the ISP as
the whole subnet was down, due to some transient problem that was fixed in a
little more than half an hour, yet instead of queuing and trying later, it
bounced the mail to Paul.

I specifically indicated that by by starting with the text above to illicit a
more detailed response.
Paul has already explained that these were responses from hotmail servers, be
it DNS or mail so this is a different event than bouncing because you are
unable to contact the DNS or mailserver.
