Outlook-generated 553 error?

[djtommye]

I'm curious.

My wife and I use Outlook 2003.
After upgrading to Vista 64 bit, and reinstalling Office 2003, she began
getting errors in Outlook:

-----------
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts
(#5.7.1)

-----------------

This message, while it LOOKs like it came from the ISP, did not. There is
no message header, and if you double-click on the message, then choose File
-> Properties, the type is Report. I've never seen this before.

I ended up creating an exact duplicate of the account in Outlook, then
deleting the old one, and it seems fine.

I'm just wondering WHY Outlook would be emulating an SMTP error, and what
the Report type means.

Thanks!
