There is an ESMTP feature called DSN, Delivery Status notification. It
allows a client, like netscape, to request the mail server to inform it
when the message is successfully delivered. Sendmail supports DSN. However,
qmail doesn't, and so netscape will complain. There is no fix, other than
to add DSN support into qmail yourself. There is, however, another form of
return receipts, which works at a client level, and which netscape also
supports. It basically allows netscape to insert a header in the email
requesting a return receipt when the recipient opens the email message,
assuming the clinet supports return receipts.
This has nothing to do with qmail, and you should read all the
documentation on netscape for more info.
