The status is that provided by the program tcpserver runs -- in this case,
qmail-smtpd.
Did you check what error message your DOS mailer was returning? It should
point you to http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html, which explains the problem.
Also, please fix your mailer; your message gets a little difficult to read with
200+ character lines. On mailing lists, try to limit your line length to
72-78 characters.
