huhs??? He asked about ETRN... ETRN and DSN are not related. As far as ETRN is
concern, you can look at AutoTURN in qmail.1-03 that does the same thing but
with all the MTA's.
As far as DSN is concern, it's a MUA feature, that does not belong in the MTA.
You want to receive the receipt if the message get's to the recipient MUA's,
not the recipient MTA...

... but that does not assures you that the message was received by the
recipient. If DSN is taken care of in the MUA, you have it.
Also, check qreceipt man page for something similar.
