Question : Bounce message with no explination

We seem to be receiving most email but continue to get a bounce back with the following information:

Could not deliver message to the following recipient(s):

Failed Recipient: [email protected]
Reason: Remote host said: 601 Attempted to send the message to the following ip's:
209.216.94.36

I haven't been able to find any details on the error code and I'm not sure why the message is bouncing. Everything appears to be correct as far as DNS and the exchagne server goes.

Answer : Bounce message with no explination

Correction - they don't have correct RDNS records

This tell me that their outbound mail server is the same as inbound (MX) server

;; ANSWER SECTION:
achem.com.              3469    IN      MX      10 mail.achem.com.

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
achem.com.              172595  IN      NS      ns3.itsoftware.com.

achem.com.              172595  IN      NS      nsa.itsoftware.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
mail.achem.com.         3469    IN      A       66.59.245.74

So the mail server IP address is 66.59.245.74

[resolver[12:00am]:~:6]> dig -x 66.59.245.74

;; QUESTION SECTION:

;; ANSWER SECTION:
74.245.59.66.in-addr.arpa. 172800 IN    PTR     webmail.itsoftware.com.

The reverse lookup for 66.59.245.74 points to webmail.itsoftware.com which is no match to achem.com
