This seems to happen to a few domains, Bellsouth, hotmail, or my work
domain, plus a few others I've tried to send mail to. It appears as though
the DNR is originating from the external gateway because I'm seeing that
it's receiving my email.

Marvin,

Is this happening to only to a particular domain or to random domains ?
Normally this happens when the destination domain's email server is
unreachable, and the messages gets queued up in the gateway. This could be
due to a problem with destination itself, or may be some Internet routing
problem in reaching the particular domain, some where in the Internet.
Usually this means the message will be retried again automatically. 

 

Is the NDR originating from your own gateway or some other external gateway
?

I'm getting the following error returned  on some of the email I send to
external clients: 

 

Delivery to the following recipients has been delayed. 

 

I get this error a couple of days or hours after sending the email. A search
of this error on Google returns a few links that seem to point to the
connection being refused but I'm not sure. Can anyone confirm and provide
some type of direction on how to troubleshoot this? 

 

Any responses are appreciated.
