Thank you Victor, but the code in the mail log is 450 which, whether it is 
generated by the DNS or postfix is still a "try again later."

My post to the group is a "thank you" not a "I need help."

We run our own DNS which is authoritative for our domain and uses root hints to 
retrieve addresses for hosts off our domain.

I configured DNSSEC to handle the domains that were failing lookup.

Anyway, thanks to all.
