It means that SIMS is giving up (at least temporarily) on those messages.

The REASON SIMS is giving up is hinted at here:

That seems to indicate that your SIMS server is not providing a 
hostname in its 'HELO' command, which is the first step in any 
attempt to send mail. You either have not set the server name in the 
general settings or you have a badly damaged config file.
