We are using Imail 6.02 and are getting ocassional reports of
bounced messages from hotmail.com. The messages report
"unknown user" even though the email address is correct. Looking
at the log for some of the meesages, they are getting SMTP error
554, e.g.

(yyyy and zzzz are placeholders for the real addresses).

Sending messages to the same email at other times of the
day works. What could be causing this ?

Thanks.
