I have ~3,000 messages (from today) stuck with this 421-ts01 problem. 
Mostly it's our "campus mail bag" which is a digest that goes out to 
students (many of whom forward their campus mail off-site).

Interestingly, it's only on the newest of our outbound SMTP boxes that's 
affected. The others (which have been in use for some years) still work 
just fine. Our SPF record is a permissive 'ptr ~all', btw.

Cheers,
