we silently dropped about 25000 Mails yesterday, so if we send out a
notification for each of those, we would produce:
* Mails that bloat our mailq, because the Domain the
Return-Path-Adress belongs is offline or sends out
temp-errors.
* Bounces for the Mails we can send out and get 'no such user' or
'over quota' responses.
* Mails that hit innocent users whose addresses were faked.
* Mails that inform a user that his mail to a Debian-list was dropped
because of whatever.
what do you think what percentage the last case has? i would expect it
the percantage would start with 0.000
So you want us to send out 25k Mails/day to worse the spam problematic,
because we silently drop legit Mail? and this happened to one user six
times in the time of a month or more?
My hopefully really last answer to this is: No, switching to some
feedback if we drop mail will only piss off many users a day, and will
speed up the general death of email.
