I am unable to receive email from a specific host
This is a log on my mail server for what's happening at the time the email is being received from the remote host.
The only thing that I'm getting out of this is that there was a protocol issue, but I can receive email from other hosts, and the remote host can send email to other hosts.
I have been unable to find more information about a 550 5.5.1 that might make sense in this situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Additionally origin.example.com and mailserver.example.com are the remote server, whereas local.example.com is my server and should be considered entirely different domains.
