asked on

mail server bouncing emails...

hello..
we have a linux mail server and are using postfix.
when email is sent to us SOMETIMES the email bounces.

I did a traceroute on our domain
and below is the output.  What does this mean?
I have called our DSL provider because it seems that the problem would be with them...
any ideas?

TraceRoute to xxx.xxx.134.40 [mail.xxxx.com]
