The USG mailer (mail, rmail, uux) currently gives notification of failed mail to the sender. Unfortunately, since it doesn't bother merging multiple "From" lines, many replies wind up going to the user "uucp" on a neighboring machine, rather than the person who really sent the message. Look in /usr/spool/mail/uucp (or /usr/mail/uucp) and you too can see these messages. Moreover, although it says "Letter returned to sender", I never see any such letter. If it did include the failed message, at least I could forward it manually to the correct person. Mark
