It means that the remote site sent a MAIL FROM that looks like:

MAIL FROM:<intranet>

in the SMTP session rather than:

MAIL FROM:<intranet@???>

Tell them to fix whatever client injected that message to use a fully
qualified domain name (FQDN) or have their mail server qualified an
unqualified name before sending the message along.
