[Spambayes] FS : DELIVERY FAILURE: 550-message rejected -- looks

This is completely unrelated to SpamBayes, but I'll give you what little I
know about it.  A 550 status indicates that, for some reason, the receiving
mail server did not understand the commands that your sending mail server
was giving it.  Exactly what the problem was depends on what software is
being used on each end of the mail conversation.  Here's one example:

<BLOCKED::http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q100352/> 
 
It seems that some mail servers will also return a 550 status if they think
the mail you are sending is spam.  Here is an example response pulled from
some of the mailing list archives:
