It's greylisting; retrying from the same IP (after expiry of whatever
delay was configured by the admin) should allow it to get through on the
following attempt.

outlook.com are probably not retrying from the same IP.

There's a good chance the admin of the list server is allowing IPs
listed in SPF records of some common domains like outlook.com to bypass
greylisting. There's also a good chance that outlook.com have started
using some new addresses without updating SPF.
