Hi, while sending to some addresses I get the bounce which looks like this. Why would that happen. Addresses are wierd, some domain name are in Ireland domainname.ie, other have numbers in a domain name. However that should not prevent delivery. From other mail system I do not have problems sending, but here I do.

The MTS-ID of the original message is: c=US;a= ;p=COMANY;l=SERVER_MAIL4-030910165400Z-37595

 
I think the DNS server is unable to resolve the domain name. Try tracing the route of that particular domain name or try nslookup.

No actually it resolves it just fine, and I also was able to get MX record from our DNS and successfully telneted to that mx record on port 25 of all of our mail servers
