This was Tamas being sent the bounce of your unrouteable
addressed mail.
I don't know about the later problems in your log, but I think
the unrouteable mail being received from fetchmail is due to
there being no localhost in the local_domains list.

I think it needs to be @:4mationnet.com:localhost
because fetchmail is deliverying to toby@localhost
This bit me too. How could localhost not be a local_domain, I
thought.
