I've trying to figure out why messages from my domain don't get to hotmail
or msn mail accounts but mail goes everywhere else. I have sent an e-mail
to MSN/HOTMAIL support about this. But, below is what the log shows for
one e-mail (all MSN/Hotmail transmissions are similar). It shows that the
e-mail is queued for delivery but there isn't anything in my postfix mail
queue and the recipient doesn't get the e-mail. I'm not certain when this
trouble began. Maybe someone more familiar with this log output can figure
this out faster than I can.

Well, the log snippet you included shows that mx1.hotmail.com
(65.54.244.136) accepted the email for delivery. It may be filtered into
their bulk mail folder or whatever they have, but I certainly hope they
aren't accepting emails and then silently trashing them. That will make my
life ten times more difficult.

Only one had me listed because of a reverse DNS issue and I believe my
trouble with MSN and Hotmail is due to this issue since my ISP is
answering the query instead of my DNS server. It certainly isn't a problem
with spamming or open relay on my system.

It appears that they are graylisting IP numbers that are dynamic. I just
had the same problem. Funny thay they ca seem to block legit email but
they can stop those emails about enlarging your penis or that type.
Make sure that your reverse DNS is correct and points back to you.

I've got the exact same problem, it says queued for mail delivery, I
talked to their support and at the beginning they tried to help, but
it seems that they just forgot about it, because there is still the
same problem. They even ask me to send a test mail to one of their
test accounts, since then i got no answer.
