  34 <PRE>     This is my view as well; as I've said many, many times before,
  35 Services is not designed to handle every possible situation--that's what
  36 admins are for.

  42 &gt;<i>I would imagine that being very difficult to do. For starters, every MTA's
  43 </I>&gt;<i>error messages aren't the same. And most error messages are too long to
  44 </I>&gt;<i>simply forward as a memo to a user. Services would have to parse the error
  45 </I>&gt;<i>message and memo the relevant information to the user.
  46 </I>&gt;<i>
  47 </I>&gt;<i>It's the user's responsibility to ensure his email address works. And it's
  48 </I>&gt;<i>the admins' duty to follow-up on error messages.
  49 </I>&gt;<i>
  50 </I>&gt;<i>My opinion atleast :)

  60 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> Idea. When nickserv receives a failure and is unable to deliver the
  61 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> auth code to an email address. Have it message that user with a
  62 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> failure notice and allow them to re register it using a valid email..
  63 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> or something along those lines. Maybe if the get the error twice it
  64 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> could hold it for 24 hours so they could contact an admin to give
  65 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> them a code.... Well something like that...
