Re: Emails to us.ibm.com rejected??

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Me email provider is me. The outbound email all goes through a redundant 
pair of barracuda units to scan for viruses and to log outbound mail. 
They deliver between 4 and 6 thousand messages each day.

So from my server they hit the barracudas and then direct to wherever.

DNS and rDNS for the sender has been set for years and the IP address 
hasn't changed in near to forever. The barracudas report their correct 
FQDN in their connection.

I'm not getting ANY bounce backs or errors from ANY other domain and 
haven't for years.

The messages sit in the cuda reporting these messages:
Deferred: : connect to e4.ny.us.ibm.com[32.97.182.144]: server refused 
mail service
Deferred: : connect to e1.ny.us.ibm.com[32.97.182.141]: server refused 
mail service
Deferred: : connect to e6.ny.us.ibm.com[32.97.182.146]: server refused 
mail service
Deferred: : connect to e33.co.us.ibm.com[32.97.110.151]: server refused 
mail service
....
Until they are eventually returned to me.
