Hi,
I wanted to see if anyone else had this experience and could tell me
where to start looking.
I'm running a qmail server for my company and when a customer sends us
an email, sometimes it bounces back and they see:
> From: postmaster at hosting.com [mailto:postmaster at hosting.com]
> Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2006 11:28 AM
> To: user at customer.com
> Subject: Undeliverable Mail
>
> Unknown user: info at mycompany.com
>
> RCPT TO generated following response:
> 550 <info at mycompany.com>... Relaying denied
>

What's throwing me off is the unknown user and relaying denied seems to
be two different error messages. I've verified via logs that this
message never reached my server. My server sends this format for
unknown users:
> Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mail.mycompany.com.
> I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
> This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
>
> <nobody at mycompany.com>:
> Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)

which is different that the one above.
I suspect that one of the hosting company's servers has a relay server
that's misconfigured.
