As far as we can see, Hmailserver does not support DSN status. Is that correct or is there maybe another way to get such a DSN delivered for postmaster non-delivery notifications?

i would say you are totally right viewtopic.php?t=35118#p221092

it could differ/depend if you are letting SA do the query through a stub resolver or an itterative resolver when using SA its "always" best to run yur own itterative resolver, since you have no control of an external one (you do not know why it might timeout.. ) i would say 10 seconds om your stub r...
