Example of an undelivered mail notification

z/OS Communications Server: IP User's Guide and Commands
SC27-3662-00

If the CSSMTP application cannot deliver a piece of mail and a report was requested, then the CSSMTP application reports this situation as an undeliverable problem.

If it is requested, an undeliverable mail notification that explains the reason that the mail was not delivered is returned to the original sender. See the CSSMTP report statement information in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference for details. The CSSMTP application might be unable to deliver a mail message because a target server is unreachable or an incorrect recipient user ID on the destination host. If mail cannot be delivered, the body of the original mail message is included in the undeliverable mail notification. The following is an example of an undeliverable mail notification:
