Lyris can send the list administrators of a mailing list
regular progress reports on how each mailing is doing. The Delivery Report
indicates when the message was attempted, how many members received it, and
when the next retry is scheduled (for the remaining member)
You have the option of also
receiving a detailed SMTP report addendum to the delivery report, where every
member who could not be sent to is detailed, and the reason for each inability
to send the message is given. This SMTP report addendum is about 10 lines of
text for each member, and so for large lists can be extremely long.
You have the option of setting
Delivery Reports to go out at these intervals:
1) after the first delivery attempt
of each message
2) after the last delivery attempt
of each message
3) after the first and last attempt
of each message
4) after each delivery attempt of
each message
The delivery reports go to all the
members of a list who are set to "receive admin mail".
