Short answer: the Postfix SMTP daemon (and SMTP client) send session
transcripts to $error_notice_recipient. That might be as promised
for policy, resource, software or protocol errors, but unexpected
for for rejected recipients. However, the SMTP client does not email
transcripts for bounces when notify_classes includes 'bounce' or
'2bounce'.
Another limitation is that these programs can send only one transcript,
so if a session has more than one kind of error, and those errors have
different notification recipients, then only one would get the notice.
