Following problem:
User <somebody_with_autoreply@???> sends a mail. Mail bounces for some
reason. Return-mail with empty envelope from finds the autoreply transport
and an autoreply is generated(?), which can't be delivered, because of the
non-existing sender (i.e. <>). The original bounce is delivered, but it
stayes in the queue. The next queue run will remove it.
Look at the (slightly edited) logfile (note the datestamps):
1998-06-23 22:41:36 0yoZsm-0004u2-00 <= <> U=root P=local S=323 from <> for somebody_with_autoreply@???
1998-06-23 22:41:36 0yoZsm-0004u2-00 == somebody_with_autoreply@??? T=t_ar defer (0): Failed to send message from t_ar transport (1)
1998-06-23 22:41:36 0yoZsm-0004u2-00 => somebody_with_autoreply@??? D=d_verteiler T=t_verteiler H=host.domain.de [1.1.1.1] C="250 OK id=0yoZsi-0008Da-00"
1998-06-23 22:42:42 0yoZsm-0004u2-00 Completed
Although this is really no problem, it still looks like a bug. :-)
