How do you know it is a temporary error? Or perhaps that "temporary"
might mean "for the next 3 months while the owners is away"? Or that,
as happens on our servers, the local server has in fact already been
holding on to the message for a number of days but the mailbox is still
full? When we have sent you a 550 (after several days), we would rather
you did not try again, thank you.
