"550 rejected: Unknown recipient" is an SMTP error received from the remote server (10.1.1.17). The bounce has been created by "srv3.office.chemitech.ru" while talking to "10.1.1.17". Now you should try to understand why srv3.office.chemitech.ru was talking to 10.1.1.17 in order to deliver a mail for @james.apache.org: - Are you using a gateway in remote delivery? - what OS do you run? - Can you try a "ping james.apache.org" from that machine? and "ping james.apache.org." (note it ends with a dot)? - If you're on linux can you paste the content of /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts ? - Is "srv3.office.chemitech.ru" the james server? - What is 10.1.1.17 ?
