No inbound emails - Exchange 2007

Hello all,
I'm experiencing an issue with our Exchange server, in that we cannot receive outside emails.
After a sizable wait, the sender gets the following bounceback message:

===============================================
THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY
YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE
===============================================

A temporary error occured while delivering to the following address(es):

<xxxxx@sitkahospital.org>: 452 Validating Sender

I will continue trying to send the message until it is delivered
or expires.

Included is a copy of the message header:

I'm not the great Exchange guru here, but he's out of town for the week, so this fell in my lap.
Any help would be -greatly- appreciated.
Thanks

It looks like you are a MX Logic customer.
That doesn't look like an Exchange NDR, so I would suspect the problem is with their service.

As you are an MX logic customer check the antispam features inside the Exchange management console. You may want to switch them all off as they shouldn't be required. It could also be a third party AV/Antispam tool on the server itself.

However this is not something that happens overnight. Features are not enabled by default, so either something has been changed on your server, or it is outside of your control.

Simon.

Laser,
I was able to send myself a message through the Telnet.
As both you an Mestha mentioned, this may be a MX Logic issue.
I'll get in touch with them, and update this post accordingly.
Thanks for the input.

Thank you both for your comments, helped put me on the right track.

It turns out that my problem was hard drive space.
Cleared out some clutter, and everything went just fine.

Again, thanks.

Jason, I'm glad you found the problem. I did mention that you should check for free disk space in my first post.
