These are partial logs for 4 different transactions.
The first line seems to be the "real" one, where your user sent a bogus
E-mail. Without see the rest of the "072900C8" entries, it's impossible to
tell exactly what is going on. But assuming that IMail behaved correctly
and sent a "550" back, the user's E-mail program should take care of
telling the sender that the address is bogus.
The SMTP- lines show IMail attempting to send an E-mail. I *do* hope that
you made up the 296.159.29.01 IP address, as that isn't a real
IP. :) The MX connect fail indicates that IMail couldn't connect to their
mail server -- to figure out why, you would have to let us know the domain
name. But, we would also need to see more of the log file.
