Attempt to send it, oops root@ doesn't exist

No idea where to send this message, can't bounce it because from is <>,
freeze it.

Done delivery for 1JKddo-0003mt-D7 since we are no longer responsible
for it.

You should really create an alias for root@ and direct it to a real account.

From the +all run you posted, the results seemed to be that DNS was
working just fine, but there was simply no path for "domain.net".

You really wanted to see the result of sending "1JKy2n-0005vt-Nq", not
the resulting bounce message, but I think the issue is still apparent.

15:45:19 22813 no more routers

So basically, "domain.net" doesn't match the domains that are sent to
your smart router nor is it considered a local_domain. There is no
default router for messages to fall on (probably good thing) and as a
result, it tried to bounce it.

"domain.net" seems to be registered to Wayne de Geere III and has been
operating correctly since 1995. Are you sure this is the domain you are
talking about? "example.com" is the domain reserved by the IANA
specifically for examples, however this lists policy is to not obfuscate
as it generally causes more issues that it solves. All email addresses
and message ids are obfuscated when they are archived on the web
regardless, to prevent web crawlers from picking up valid email addresses.
