Find out why the host rejected the mail. I assume your mails are not spam and they dont have a virus ( Email virus is almost a non-issue now a days ) Are all the forwarded mails getting rejected , or only a few I suspect the recipient server is doing an SPF check. So you wont be able to forward unless you change the envelope. Thanks Ram
