Hello,
I've put an invalid command (forward, instead of redirect) in a users 
mailproc.tab. Today was the first time that anyone actually sent an email to 
that address. Xmail has sent the following error to the syslog:
> May  9 16:06:07 LocalHost XMail[1925]: Invalid command "forward" in file 
> "/var/lib/xmail/spool/5/17/mprc/1178719567343.2820668336.23d1.Core"

But it did NOT notify the remote mailserver that it could not process the mail. 
I think XMail just dropped the message (I can't find it in the user's 
mailbox...).
The entry in the smtp log:

"UFO-Net.nl" "UFO-Net.nl" "193.176.144.241" "2007-05-09 16:06:07" 
"gw2a.domain-registry.nl" "thedomain" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" 
"S19B77" "RCPT=OK" "" "0" ""

"UFO-Net.nl" "UFO-Net.nl" "193.176.144.241" "2007-05-09 16:06:07" 
"gw2a.domain-registry.nl" "thedomain" "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
"S19B77" "RECV=OK" "" "2981" ""

Is it possible that XMail stored the email somewhere? (No, it's not in the 
spool, there's no mailbox entry in the mailproc.tab file, and the users mailbox 
is empty..).
Shouldn't xmail return a temporary error to the sending server, so I can fix 
the error? Or forward the message to the postmaster/system admin, or keep it in 
the spool?
