hotmail and its Getting started with Windows Live and Hotmail? Delivery Status Notification (Failure)‏, I keep getting hundreds of these
 
this just started going on with hotmail, i am getting hundreds and thousands of delivery status failures, is there a way to block these so they stop coming>
 
That sounds like you're either sending lots of messages that can't be delivered or that somebody is using your address in the From header of a spam run. (Spammers generally don't use their own address in the From header.)
In the first case you should be more carefull with the addresses you're sending your messages.
In the second case there's little you can do, you could create a filter that deletes bounces, mopst bounces use similar subjects, so it's rather easy to sel ect them. This will cause legitimate bounces to be deleted too, but you can de-activate the filter in a week. Most cases of somebody using your fr om address for spam don't go further than one or two runs.

I dont think that is the case because when I am logged into hotmail in firefox and I delete  those delivery status failures one by one by hand they usually stop for a while about 8 hours but the next morning they are back again

I am only emailing people back off ads I posted on craigslist
 
Hello,

I get a lot of these error messages as well. There is a problem with TB which seems to have existed since somewhere in v4 and continued into v5.  The errors messages that I receive keep saying that TB cannot resolve the mail server's IP address. It is a timing issue which has never been acknowledged as a problem by the development staff.

Regards,

Jan
