550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable
- by Porch
I setup a small box with Server 2003 64bit to be used as a webserver and email server for a small school. Real simple stuff for a few users. A simple website and a handful of emails. rDNS and spf records setup and pass every test I found including test at dnsstuff.com.
Email sending to almost every email address (google, hotmail, aol, whatever) works. However, with one domain, I get an bounce back with the error.

It's another school running Exchange judging from some packet sniffing with WireShark. Every email on this domain I have tried sending to gives this error.
The email address is valid as I can send to it from my personal, and gmail account without a problem.
Does anyone know of some anti-spam software that gives an 550 error like the above? What else could this be?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Packet capture of the two servers communicating look like this.
