I can shed a little light here. That "MAA23665" sounds like a mail id. I would grep for that string in your mail logs which are often in /var/log/syslog.

And 550 is just a normal smtp error which is documented in the rfc.

But I don't know why you are getting an i/o error. I have never seen that error.

check-hostname

check-hostname(1M)					  System Administration Commands					check-hostname(1M)

NAME

       check-hostname - check if sendmail can determine the system's fully-qualified host name

SYNOPSIS

	/usr/sbin/check-hostname

DESCRIPTION

       The  check-hostname  script  is a migration aid for sendmail(1M). This script tries to determine the local host's fully-qualified host name
       (FQHN) in a manner similar to sendmail(1M). If check-hostname is able to determine the FQHN of the local host, it reports  success.  Other-
       wise, check-hostname reports how to reconfigure the system so that the FQHN can be properly determined.

FILES

       /etc/hosts	     Host name database

       /etc/nsswitch.conf    Name service switch configuration file

       /etc/resolv.conf      Configuration file for name server routines
