        You're misreading the bounce.  Read the part where the bounce
actually occurs, as follows:

    <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
    205.188.156.130 does not like recipient.
    Remote host said: 550 MAILBOX NOT FOUND
    Giving up on 205.188.156.130.

        Now do a reverse lookup on 205.188.156.130 and you get:

> set type=ptr
> 205.188.156.130
130.156.188.205.in-addr.arpa    name = rly-yc02.mx.aol.com 

        So, rly-yc02.mx.aol.com replied with a "550 MAILBOX NOT FOUND."
That's not silently dropping, that's bouncing.
