Hi,

I have some lists which are used primarily as a distribution method (rather than chat) and the person who uses these lists doesn't have access to the detailed MM logs and is not interested in that.

It would be very helpful for message bounces (& any other anomalous events, if any) were to be available to that person for each message that is sent out, in a manner similar to mailgun et al. I know something of the bounce processing MM3 does, but it seems to be totally hidden from e.g. the postorius end of things (unless I'm missing something?).

Is there a way for bounce events to be emailed to the list owner, or for something to be available in postorius to show this info?

If not in the standard package, do other people have ad-hoc solutions to this issue?

My ideal option would be for a configurable per-message email or postorius link that reports the number of emails to send (=number in mlist), the number on 'no-mail', the number sent successfully (=no bounce?), the emails of those who bounced (with bounce score), and emails of blocked sends (eg by multiple bounces).

So for example:

Bounce report for listname:

Email Subject: Announcement
Sent: today at time
 From Email: user@example.com received (today at time)
To List: listname@example.com with 100 subscribers; 89 successful; 4
bounces; 3 blocks; 4 nomail;

Bounces:
  - foo@bar.example.com (no mailbox)
  - bar23@foo.example.com (timeout)
  - alice@baz.example.org (mailbox full)
  - bob@example.net (bounce-reason)

Blocked:
  - foo@bob.example.com (score 3)
  - bar23@alice.example.com (admin ban)
  - alice@alice.example.org (score 2)

I suspect that my ideal option would require changes to the internal processing, because MM would need to keep more information about bounces than I think it currently does. It might also need to retain more information about LMTP delivery statuses?

Thanks in hope?
