(and before that RFC 3464)

 

2.3.5 Remote-MTA field

 

   The value associated with the Remote-MTA DSN field is a printable

   ASCII representation of the name of the "remote" MTA that reported

   delivery status to the "reporting" MTA.

 

      remote-mta-field = "Remote-MTA" ":" mta-name-type ";" mta-name

 

   NOTE: The Remote-MTA field preserves the "while talking to"

   information that was provided in some pre-existing nondelivery

   reports.

 

   This field is optional.  It MUST NOT be included if no remote MTA was

   involved in the attempted delivery of the message to that recipient.

Super helpful. Thanks.

 

This may be a stupid question, but can you help me understand what "Remote-MTA" 
means in this context? I'm a little confused as to how that works.
