No other suggestions. If yyy.com.au were AOL, it would be flat-out
rejected. Many other domains do this, too. AOL's just the biggest and most
common. Can other people send to yyyyy.com.au? Then you have a problem.
The most common of which is the one that is exhibited by the machine
mail.pracnet.com.au. If this is the machine in question, you may want to
re-evaluate your understanding.
