This is the mail system at host smiley.fayette208.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.

The mail system

<rschulz@xxxxxxxxx>: host mail.sonic.net[64.142.7.162] said: 553 5.1.8
<root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>... Domain of sender address
root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx does not exist (in reply to MAIL FROM command)

Aha, so the remote email system doesn't accept email from made up domains.
The bounce goes through because it is sent from an empty address <>, so no
domain check there.

Looks like you may have to give your mail server a proper domain name, to get
past the security checks at sonic.com
