I am sometimes irked by the poverty of content of some error messages (including mine), but I consider that those related to e-mails deserve a special mention. Here is a cool example of the info you get in return when sending a mail with several attachments of different kinds. The messages are provided in two separate files. The best of the story is that you are not just bombarded with all that useless crap, you also don't get any clue about the things that really matter to you: 1) what file or file extension was blocked ? 2) was the message delivered at all ? Do you share my outrage ? Details.txt

X-DCC-somename.be-MetricNot really. The error is pretty obvious. One, or more, of your attachments is not allowed. This is probably an .exe or some script file, i.e. anything exectuable. When you get an error like this, your message is just about never delivered.

Dave KreskowiakWhat about an error message like
The attached file 'Attach.exe' was rejected for security reasons. The message was not delivered.? Would that be too much human-like ? -
