Bounce killer tries to recognize some forms of bounce messages, but is rather conservative about it. At the end of a bounce test, if a bounce killer did not recognize a message as a bounce, but a message is exhibiting some indication that it might have been some form of an auto-response, then you see this informative message logged at log level 2. Currently these indications are: auto-response, From or return-path is a 'postmaster', or a SpamAssassin rule ANY_BOUNCE_MESSAGE was hit. So nothing to worry about. This is mostly an information for program development that perhaps a bounce killer may be missing recognition of some unusual form of a bounce. Mark
