While running Centos4 (RHEL4) with Postfix and Bind9, I am recently
seeing an error message - mail being bounced. I have never seen the
error message before, and not sure if it's a Postfix or Bind message. I
have exhausted all of my sources, and need to post my problem here.
Perhaps the answer will help someone else too.

----------------------------------

Bind shows no errors when performing RNDC reload, and the mail error
shows up in the mail log.

Suggestions?

thanks in advance
