and how is this different to any other e-mail you send over SMTP?
if it fails you get a bounce from your postfix server to the envelope sender
and if you do not get a bounce after 5 days it was delivered - nothing new
Or dropped...
which is like a big blackhole that do exists on many of the existing MTAs.
You can use use basic confirmation to make sure the local SMTP\MTA
server did what he is suppose to do and like many other things in the
wide net "hope" it will work accordingly to the RFC and the network
policies and eventually will be delivered to the destination.
But the real question is: so many sites and systems out-there do just
"send" their emails since these systems tends to just work.. so "why do
you need more then the basic send?"
