Haines -- It is hard to diagnose anything from this bounce, without 
information about what the original message looked like. A ways down in the 
bounce report is this information:

The first question you need to answer is -- how did 127.0.0.1 get into the 
"To:" header? Was it an addressing error on your part, or did something 
rewrite it to that value? I'd suggest you check the outbox of whatever 
program you used to send the message. If the "To: 127.0.0.1" line appears 
in your original, then it was just a typo and of no significance to your 
troubleshooting (that is, the reject is correct). If the original has a 
different To: line, then post a followup with the details -- what MUA, 
which system (hard disk) you were using, and what the original To: line said.

If it aids your memory, this message has a timestamp just 10 minutes before 
the one on the telnet test you did (and reported on) yesterday.
