I sent a message to the postmaster of a domain that dnsreport indicates is accepting mail:
http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=nevadatitle.com
Even the logs show the recipient as OK:

And the message appears to have been sent OK. But I immediately receive a delivery failure message, apparently from the other server.
The same logs appear when I send to an absurd mailbox at this domain ([EMAIL PROTECTED]); the logs indicate the recipient OK.
What is happening here? Can someone clarify this for me?
