 Any idea what this error message from my isp means?

 Following to this site it means the following:
 (http://staff.ncst.ernet.in/~philip/writings/smtp-intro.html)

   Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable [E.g., mailbox not
   found, no access]

Queer.  It is actually a very valid mailbox, accepting all mail.  Any thing I should 
be concerned
about at all?

DvZ Following to this site it means the following:

DvZ   found, no access]

No. This is only the 'human translation' for error code '550'.
It seems '550' is used somehow inflationary, so you can't rely on the
exact literal translation.

@John:
You can firstly be sure the mail was _not_ delivered. 550 is an error
code for a serious failure with no delivery being done and no retry
being following.
You can secondly read the text after '550' and try to understand:

DATA line too long (Max 1024)

This relativizes the translation above mentioned URL gives.
The mail you sent out contained a line in DATA part that was
simply to long. Either your MUA sent it this long or an intermediate
MTA made a mistake while transferring the mail.

The reasons you got no error for second recipient can be various:
1.) it's MTA can handle longer lines than 1024
2.) the return never reached your mailbox
3.) an MTA dropped the mail silently.

All in all I'd assume '451' would have been a better error code for
what I think to be read from the descriptive text ... Nevertheless:
Put the mail into outbox again and have a look into it's source (if
using The Bat! use F9) if there's any extreme long line.

If so: try to avoid it, if you don't know how: ask here so we can
suggest some possible solutions depending on the exact circumstances.

Hello fellow Bat! fans.

Any idea what this error message from my isp means?

could not be successfully delivered to the following recipients :-

This message was actually sent to two people; the other not at fashionfair;  no
reject notice on that one. (AFAIK)
