and the user gets the following NDR message also

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients. Contact your administrator.The MTS-ID of the original message is:c=US;a= ;p=domain.com;l=SRV02-031103161112Z-471
MSEXCH:MSExchangeMTA:domain:SRV02


Any Insight would be very helpful. I have already tried the microsoft's Q316617 article and I still get these errors.
No one is able to send external emails until I stop the smtp service and restart the routing engine service.
