When trying to send emails to certain addresses an error window will pop up and
the email will not be sent. The message says; 

"An error occured while sending mail.  The mail server responded:
5.7.1<destinbation email address>....   Relaying denied IP name lookup
failed[local IP]   Please check the message receipients  and try again."

This error pops up sporadicaly. The email will be sent to some address, but not
to otherts despite the fact that these addresses are legitamate.  I was able to
send emails out without getting this message with previous versions of netscape
and mozilla, but both browsers give the same error.  I have also changed
outgoing mail servers and receive the same problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.compose or reply to an email
2.send the email
3.

Actual Results:  
Depending on the destination address, I might receive this message.  

Expected Results:  
Send the message without any error message from appearing

This bug has not been reproducable to me, and I sent many test messages. 

Believe this to be a non-Mozilla problem.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
