Peter van Dijk mentioned that ezmlm parses QSBMF.  However, the bigger
question is "What is the the definite reason (*now*) for _not_ keeping QSBMF?"
I have seen lots of people who say they want to change the content of qmail's
bounce messages, but no one has ever been able to give a good reason why.

The current message is informative, clear, and concise.  What else could you
want?

See my earlier reply to this thread as to why I would like to change the message. In order to provide my customers with the best service possible, I consider those very good reasons to change the message.
