Yep. That was my point from the very beginning. This behaviour is
correct as far as I am concerned.
I thought you tried to argue that you misspell an address and will
not learn before a week - but that's not too probable that a
misspelled address produces temporary DNS error.
(OTOH, now my queue contains quite a few mails to a host with a
lame server - top-level servers for .it know the domain but the
designated servers never heard of it. This is a soft error too.)
