In most cases, the error is related to the receiving MTA. For this example, FQDNof.example.com does not accept emails from HES outbound servers.
To resolve the issue, check the IP addresses used for outbound emails. Refer to the following KB article for more information: Accepting emails coming only from Hosted Email Security (HES) servers.
If the recipient confirms that mails are accepted out of the IP range and the issue still persists, submit a case to Trend Micro Technical Support. Provide the following information:
  • HES Activation Key (Example: NM-...)
  • HES login ID
  • Sample copy that shows the issue. From the HES admin console, go to Logs > Mail Tracking. Select the relevant email and copy the text.
  • Non-delivery report from the original sender
