Since it's a bit off-topic for LKML it's being discussed off-list. The problem was with the DNS servers. Since the mail server could not determine SPF status for the domain it returned a temporary error (hoping that the DNS problem would get resolved).
So the situation is more towards 1). The mail is valid, but there is a DNS (or firewall) misconfigured somewhere.
