Charles & Maex:
I found out that settings for tcpwrapper ( in /etc/host.deny ) were causing
this problem. Once I cleared /etc/host.deny, the problem went away.
I have no idea how this error message is created but I also thought that the
MS-EXCHANGE was the problem, except it is a production machine which sends
and receives thousands of messages a day. Considering this, I thought that
the problem was somewhere else.
I had previously posted my response. I hope you got it by now.

That error doesn't come from qmail. Your MS-Exchange server appears to have
been unable to resolve the A or MX record for "tibonline.net". Was the DNS
setup broken? In any case, it's not a qmail problem.

I'd say the configuration on that M$ client is broken.
Either there is a typo/misconfiguration in the entry for "SMTP-Host"
where the client tries to inject the mail or the host has no working
misconfigured DNS.
Why? Because:
> MSEXCH:IMS:TIB:MTC-TN:TALIA 3902 (000B09AA) Host Unknown
I'd say it is NOT a qmail related problem (but then ... I don't know much
about Windows).
