I would like to receive back notification that a message(mail, mailx, or elm) sent to a remote user was received and/or that the user address is valid.

Hi,

This link shows you how using elm:

http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/dsn.html

ELM 2.4ME supports from PL27 on DSN, if you have sendmail 8.8 or higher.

Hope this helps. Regards.

We are running Sendmail, and in the file /var/adm/syslog/mail.log remote messages status are logged. So I am able to sort out the messages and create a log of what messages are sent where and when.
