Subject: [Exim] please explain temporary rejection
I have a machine (auth.qcislands.net) which forwards all email to
(mail.qcislands.net) for delivery UNLESS the email is specifically
address to XXX@??? (so XXX@??? would forward
to mail).

While testing a filter file for "paz" on mail, I signed on to auth, and
address an email for "paz@???". This email was temporarily
REJECTED by mail.qcislands.net.

I have the following entries in my mail:configure file
headers_sender_verify=true
sender_verify
sender_verify_fixup
sender_unqualified_hosts=209.53.238.0/24

Following is the reject.log message on mail: could someone interpret the
reason?.. my DNS works perfectly, and "paz" is a valid user on both machines
