This started happening only when I upgraded to 4.50-15_1.
I tested e-mail connectivity from my own hotmail account. When I issue
tail -f /var/log/maillog I see my e-mail coming in, but it is just
queued by mailscanner, its never sent to the intended recipient(which is
me).
If I disable mailscanner and only allow sendmail to process inbound
mail, I recevie the e-mail. As soon as I enable mailscanner, hotmail
e-mails are just queued and not delivered.

Whitelisting hotmail.com is _not_ a good a idea, as you will be
flooded
with junk.
If legitimate mail from hotmail.com addresses is being blocked you
need
to know why. Whitelisting is not the solution :)
What do your logs say?
