That was the message i got from gmail.
First i wanted to send an email from my regular email adress, but it bounced with this kind of info, so then i sent it from gmail and got the same problem...

And i am quite sure the email adress i want to send to is valid :-/

:helpme

The ISP's and carriers are royally fucking up the e-mail networks with all these new restrictions they're putting on the outbound e-mail servers.

it means no relaying!

maybe the MX for the domain thinks its not the MX and thinks you or your MX is trying to relay thru it so its an error their end

thanks for stopping in my thread KRL, but i am not a tech guy...so how can i solve this if i want to send that guy an email?

Yeah, to many email servers are being hacked and used as spam machines. It's very easy to use someone else's servers to bounce spam out of and therefore, never get caught. Or better yet, placing the blame somewhere else. This is why many ISP's or hosting companies get black listed in places without ever knowing it.

So a lot of companies now are not allowing relaying at all, and many other common functions.

Which basically means, sending your emails is becoming much less easy to do.

if they are using Qmail and don't put the domain in rcpthosts this might happen I think
