Can someone make sure Adam gets my email please?  His server rejects
messages from my domain:

  adam@...drasil.com
    SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<rmk+adam=yggdrasil.com@....linux.org.uk> SIZE=3022:
    host yggdrasil.com [61.49.148.168]: 553 5.1.8 <rmk+adam=yggdrasil.com@....linux.org.uk>... Domain of sender address rmk+adam=yggdrasil.com@....linux.org.uk does not exist

(the error is obviously utter rubbish.)

Thanks.
