The error their server returned was 4.5.2 Insufficient System Storage.
4.x.x errors are considered 'temporary/transient', and may be retried
at a later time. Your message was re-queued on your side, because
excite.de told your mailserver that the problem was only temporary.
If they had returned a 5.x.x code, then your message would have been
rejected and bounced back instead.

Feel free to take anything I say with a grain of salt; I'm always
in 'learning mode' myself ;)
