Telneting to mx1.worldgate.co.in to the better part of 5 seconds to respond
and the server responds with this

freebsd# telnet mx1.worldgate.co.in 25
Trying 203.109.64.24...
Connected to mx1.worldgate.co.in.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 hercules.worldgatein.com ESMTP Postfix
quit
221 Bye
Connection closed by foreign host.

Digs to the same server timed out 3 of 5 trys

I will send you an email from Hotmail with full headers to see what I can
see

This looks very much like a DNS issue...If you have an AOL account try
sending from there
