Yes. How about you give us the exact information from the log files and
smtproutes rather than cloaking them? If you've been on this list for
any time at all you'll see that cloaking irritates the hell out of people
as it makes it very hard to diagnose and it often covers up the true
nature of the problem that the poster hasn't though about, particularly
DNS related issues.
Can you resolve MX entries on the test system? If so, show us the successful
MX lookup of the same domain name that is failing the remote delivery.
Regards.
