A mail server in our vicinity could, for some time, not be reached
because of a routing problem on their side. Now that problem is
solved and I can make a successful smtp connection through telnet.
However, our mailserver (from where I made the smtp/telnet connection)
can not send mail there:

What can cause this? And how do I correct it?
I am using exim 4.10 on the server.
Regards.
Johann
