I believe that I am able to email most of them. But with several of them I receive a "550 Unable to relay for" bounce message back. Below is a sanitized transcript from the IMAIL SMTP session. Can someone explain to me what is going on here? Did the user spam filter us or somehow block the email or is there some other reason for these errors?
