Deferred: 450 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [150.101.94.101] This is saying that your reverse mapping did not work on this occasion: the FreeBSD mail systems, in this case hub.FreeBSD.org, could not find the name of the host with the IP address 150.101.94.101. It's not fatal. > Warning: message still undelivered after 2 days This suggests, however, that it's been going on for quite a while. I've seen a number of messages from you, all on the same subjects, so it looks as if the problems got fixed, possibly with the help of DougY.
