That sounds sensible, given that your users read and understand bounce messages (from my experience, many do not). OTOH, some could be annoyed to get a bounce message after sending a 2 MiB message [1] (which takes a while with slow upstream), because of a mistyped recipient address, when they could be notified immediately. So it may be better to do that only on small messages (< some hundred KiB), but that may not be relevant for a university with everybody connected by LAN. [1] I know that it's technically not very senseful to send large files by mail, but users don't care much about that. -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
