For bounces created by your own system (which is all you can control), you can use the smtpd_reject_footer feature to add a web link to helpful information (in your local language). Few people will bother clicking on it, but it might help a little. I'm always a little surprised when people really do contact me through this. http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_reject_footer -- Noel Jones
