Okay, I've googled this and gotten nowhere.

For some reason, when I send an email from our web server (using PHPmailer), to our mail server (MDaemon 7.0.1), the mail server accepts the message for delivery, and then immediately dumps the message in the "bad" queue, as if it didn't know what to do with it.

The cuts below show MDaemon's log of the mail being received, and the mail headers generated by the PHPmailer.
