This is a *temporary* error. Your provider's server should retry
delivering the message for a decent amount of time (3 to 7 days is
customary).
Your provider's server may send you a notification that the mail cannot
currently be delivered and that it will keep trying. Such notifications
are usually sent after a much shorter period (a few hours).
