Numerical Code: 4.4.7 
Possible Cause: The message in the queue has expired. The sending server
tried to relay or deliver the message but the action was not completed
before the message expiration time occurred. This message can also indicate
that a message header limit has been reached on a remote server or some
other protocol timeout occurred while communicating with the remote server. 
Troubleshooting: This message usually indicates an issue on the receiving
server. Check the validity of the recipient address, and determine if the
receiving server is configured to receive messages correctly. It may be
necessary to reduce the number of recipients in the header of the message
for the host to which you are receiving this error. If you resend the
message, it is placed in the queue again. If the receiving server is up, the
message is delivered.

Server can't hand off. It's a 'temporary' error telling you it can't deliver
the message to the server. If it could contact the server and exchange
messages with it, but the receiving server couldn't find the mailbox in the
address you'd see something different.
