Sebastien,
It would appear that it is right, and your host lacks a "postmaster"
account. When I checked just now, supermeta.com replied:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: host supermeta.com[69.73.141.134] said: 550-"The
recipient cannot be verified. Please check all recipients of this 550
message to verify they are valid." (in reply to RCPT TO command)
If you add a "postmaster" user to the machine, the complaints should go away.
If you plan to ever look at any error messages which go to postmaster,
you could redirect them in /etc/aliases, for example.
hth,
Erik
