No broken-ness. It looks like the server didn't like that your mail which says
it's from shub-internet.org is coming from his.com. Sender/source domain mismatch.

This is a defensive tactic used to keep spammers from sending mail via some
zombie and saying they're from paypal.com, or something else.
