No. I do not know them; only that they appear to have intercepted the
email and to have caused it to bounce. The interception was unexpected and
appeared suspicious. The involvement of bekkers.com.au, was completely
unexpected. I was not aware what bekkers was, until I input the IP address
into a browser window, to find the website.

An edited version (for privacy) of the bounce message, appears below.

No attempt at relaying, by me, was involved; the simple sending of a
simple email, was all that I attempted.
