Email Puzzle/Problem.. Let see if someone can figure it out..

[Papagayo]

My company is trying to send an email to a person in Wright Patterson Air Force Base.

It seems that it's being blocked by a gateway.. I'm getting the message from the gateway in Chicago.

here is the error message (I've replaced the real name with John Doe for the post):

Other company's has no problem sending an email to this person.. The problem only happens when anyone tries to send the email from our company.

Um, looks like the gateway is having problems with the name lookup of wpafb.af.mil....

Is there a way around it? Who can I contact to get it fixed?

Try conacting a car forum, or maybe a photoshot forum, see if they can get it fixed.
