I just sent to both of those addresses.. concordiatech bounced
instantly. BUT the bounce message came from 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], not your exchange server.  I have
not seen the other domain bounce yet.

Do you have mxlogix set up to get/query you directly for the
concordiatech domain addresses and not the other?
