This is not necesarily a courier question, but since thats what i use ....
What reason is there to respond to a "user unknown" with transient error code instead of a permanent failure ? ..like this:
: 450 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: User unknown in local recipient table
i've seen this a couple of times now and the mail hangs in the queue for 4 days until it's bounced ...

This message comes from the remote mail server, and has nothing to do with Courier.

uhem ..i know that ..my question is why would any mail server connect a transient error code with a "user unknown" type problem ?!
