One of my contacts told me she had 2 of my emails bounce back to her. This was a reply to my email so it originated with my email address.

    You didn't say whether it was a personal or business address. I ask because lately, Microsoft's mail system has been very sensitive to missing DNS values that are designed to detect spoofed addresses If it's a business address and the DNS records are not configured exactly correct, the incoming messages could be rejected.

    Is it happening only with the one sender? Is the sender using a personal address or a business address?

    Hi. I'm Brian and I'll try to help.

    If your sender received non-delivery reports, the reason for the non-delivery can be found in the report. Can you contact the sender and ask exactly what the report says?
