This says that the remote server did not respond appropriately to your
sendmail, and it probably rejected the connection. MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN
are all MTA commands that instruct your mail server how to respond.

Someone who identified him/herself as [EMAIL PROTECTED] tried to
send you mail through sc59-71.sdcoe.k12.ca.us and got a reject=550
relaying denied.
