Would it be possible for the email in code to filter out delivery status failure mails? We sent out a mailing last night and have 200 failures as posts in discourse now:
(Any suggestions on getting these out in the first place would also be appreciated,especially the 200 notification entries)

Yep, they should be filtered already because they have a header state of `Auto-Submitted`

Looks like there’s a _lot_ of broken systems out there then 🙂
I see mails with `X-Auto-Response-Suppress: All` (from exhange)
Some just have:
```plaintext
Content-Type: multipart/report; report-type=delivery-status;
boundary="110e4b6c-159b-4262-b2ca-cbe359515e6a"
```
as content type (and no other identifying headers)
QMail just sends a reject mail from `From: MAILER-DAEMON@somedomain` or `From: mailer-daemon@somedomain`.
Another one: `X-QQ-HolidayReply: true`
(I setup a sieve filter to block mailer-daemon & postmaster locally which cuts down 99% of these btw)

Just improved our auto generated email detection 👍
