OT: Sendmail(?) Help

USERNAME at DOMAIN.com is  mrobbins at synergyconsultingteam.com and account
and domain external to ours - crackerbarrel.com.  As we have incoming
email separated from outgoing email I assumed (yeah I know) that this
was a very odd incoming message. I completely missed the to=... This
message is MS reporting to mrobbins that an attachment in their message
was not accepted. I thought this was my server reporting the "quota
limit" but as you said it is not. I was not expecting an outgoing
message on this server so I got confused.

Thanks!
Carl

Nothing wrong with your sendmail.  The "Recipient address rejected: 
Policy Rejection- 274 -- Sender Quota Exceeded" tempfail is coming from
65.182.102.90 when Sendmail is attempting to deliver the message.

Maybe you've messed up your mailertable - is DOMAIN.com mail
(obfuscating the domain really doesn't help on a list like this)
supposed to go to 65.182.102.90?  Or should it have been delivered
locally?

Regards,
Steve.
