When it's not possible to deliver a message, there's no way for you to know what went wrong before the server has retried x times and you've received an error message back.
I think it would be nice to have a new column in "Undelivered messages" with the header "Failure" (or something) that shows what went wrong. Even if it just says Connection failure I think people would be less confused..

Would it be possible to expand on this a little?
Currently If an email generated by php fails I have to regenerate that email manually. Would it be possible to attatch the failed email to the failure notice that gets sent out from mailer-daemon@domain so you can then just open the attachment and retry to send the failed message.
This would be extremely useful to me as sending out reciepts takes a lot of calculations and when they fail I have to do it all manually which takes an age..
Thanks in advance.

If at first you don't succeed, bomb disposal probably isn't for you! ヅ
