Hi, I'm trying to find where to set undeliverable notification for users.
I'm used to Unix-y systems that will deliver a message to users about
4 hours after the initial failure, saying roughly, "tried for 4 hours, failed, will
keep trying for 4 days".
 
I see where to set the retry period, but where can I set the notification
for users? If users assume for 3 days (our current retry period) that a
message was delivered, only to find out at the end that it was not,
that's not good for us admins.
 
Gracias in advance!

Hi.

Unfortunately, you can't. Groupwise will only notify the users when it
finally gives up, no earlier. However, the user can check the status of
their sent mail in their client.

CU,

Wow, this is sad. I can hardly believe there aren't better options, esp'ly since Unix mail led the way.
 
Thanks for the response, at least.
