This is maybe just an translation bug, since i don't know how to change the
language of error messages. ( Bug 331969 )
Scenario:
User [email protected] tries to send an email from [email protected] to
[email protected].
[email protected] is not owend by [email protected]
This leads to following Error (German):
Fehler beim Übertragen der Nachricht. Mailversand fehlgeschlagen, da die
folgende Empfängeradresse vom Server abgelehnt wurde: [email protected]
(Meldung des Servers: 5.7.1 <[email protected]>: Sender address rejected: not
owned by user [email protected])
Translation:
Error transferring message. Mail delivery failed because the following
_recipient_ address was rejected by the server : [email protected]
( message from server : 5.7.1 <[email protected]> : Sender address rejected : not
owned by user [email protected] )
As you can see kmail misinterpreted the message from the server.
I also tried this with a different server and got a different but vaild error
message:
German:

[email protected] nicht.
Meldung des Servers: Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable Sender
address is not allowed.
Translation:

A misleading error message. (depends on the server)
