ezmlm warning

[cjmelhorn]

Does Vortech have a system such as ezmlm warning when an e-mail address is not valid?

This was something one of my users got. I would assume his e-mail was possibly down, just want to make sure someone has not already aquired the e-mail address.

Thanks
Craig

Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the
#######@##### mailing list.

I'm working for my owner, who can be reached
at #######@######.


Messages to you from the membership mailing list seem to
have been bouncing. I've attached a copy of the first bounce
message I received.

If this message bounces too, I will send you a probe. If the probe bounces,
I will remove your address from the membership mailing list,
without further notice.


I've kept a list of which messages from the membership mailing list have
bounced from your address.

Copies of these messages may be in the archive.

To retrieve a set of messages 123-145 (a maximum of 100 per request),
send an empty message to:
<########@#####>

To receive a subject and author list for the last 100 or so messages,
send an empty message to:
<######@#####>

Here are the message numbers:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mail3.hsphere.cc.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<###########>:
Sorry, I wasn't able to establish an SMTP connection. (#4.4.1)
I'm not going to try again; this message has been in the queue too long.

Isn't that a built in feature of ezmlm ? after x bounces it can remove a users subscription from the mailing list also. I've not used ezmlm here at vortech but when I've set it up at other places it would do that.

[cjmelhorn]

I don't know. That is why I posted here! I have not seen it before. Just wanted to get a clarification. Maybe tomorrow I will check the system.

Maybe some other input before I get to do that though!

Thanks,

[Brangwyn]
