delivery status failure

I have been getting Delivery Status Failure bounce back emails from accounts that I communicate with regularly. Not all emails bounce back, just a handful. Suggestions?
In order for us to further investigate this issue,  please provide us the affected email account and the complete bounce message (or error message) you've received so we can determine the root cause of this issue. To do so, please follow the steps below:

1. Right-click the bounce message on your Inbox.

2. Choose the View message source option on the drop down menu. You will be seeing a new window containing the e-mail message headers and its content.

After doing so, kindly post the message source with all the components of the bounce message such as:

> Final-Recipient

> Action

> Status

> Diagnostic-Code
