The problem with Hotmail is that they are in HTML format by default and not rich text or plain text. The keitais prefer the messages to be in rich/plain text because they are lighter. Maybe your keitai is filtering out the mails because of the size issue.

Another cause could be that the errored messages are not using a Japanese charset such as ISO-2022-JP... we had this problem.

Yes all of the above. Ask your friends to only use plain text from Hotmail and Yahoo. It is an easy option.

Hotmail is pretty sucky.
