Undeliverable email (message too old)

Hi,

When I send to a particular email address, I usually receive the following bounce:

 

"Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 5.4.7 - Delivery expired (message too old) 'timeout' (delivery attempts: 0)".

 

Any idea if this is a TPG issue or the receiver's service provider and how can I resolve this ?

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers,  Allan

I also have the same problem. Was this solved for any of the above reports?

I get: 

Reporting-MTA: dns; rpt-glb-asav2.mgt.tpgtelecom.com.au

Final-Recipient: rfc822;<destination email redacted>
Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0 (permanent failure)
Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 5.4.7 - Delivery expired (message too old) 'timeout' (delivery attempts: 0)

This seems to be happening for a number of TPG customers trying to email to any email account at the same destination domain.

I have made multiple calls tom both TPG and the detination host, and no-one seems to know what the problem is.
