Look at that inbox – 893 emails, some of which are real but most are ‘returned delivery’ replies. Maybe it’s for the best to configure your mail server to not even bother replying these days (as I do).  With the vast majority of email being delivered being spam, and all pretence of good behaviour on the internet vanishing, I think it’s time the protocols of email delivery (notification if undeliverable) were retired.
