This error sounds like it's our mail server rejecting the email from pmg, however our users said they were getting those emails before we implemented pmg, and our mail server has not been changed at all.

Any help would be much appreciated.
 
that is definitely a message from 'ourmailserver's IP[ourmailserver's IP]:25'

however our users said they were getting those emails before we implemented pmg, and our mail server has not been changed at all.
but maybe the sender domain changed somehow?
