Why would a recipient's e-mail server accept only SOME messages from us??

Asked by slaffertybob in Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), Exchange Email Server, Email Servers

Tags: Microsoft, Exchange 2003, 2003, Sending e-mail

We have a system that will automatically send out an e-mail when an event occurs (this event happens to be when a lease application is moved to a certain stage in the process).  That e-mails gets relayed to the Exchange server, which has the IP address of that system in it's exception "allowed to relay" list.

SOME of the e-mails that are going out are not being accepted by CERTAIN domains.  HOWEVER, those domains that aren't accepting those types of e-mail (from the automated process described above) ARE accepting messages that are being composed using Outlook and sent from an employee, including myself.  ALL e-mails are going through the exact same server.  

THE QUESTION IS:  Why would an e-mail server accept certain e-mails from us, but not others?  How can it tell and what is the difference?
