Description 

Author

This class can be used to parse bounced message reports.

It parses e-mail messages with multipart report content type formatted according to RFC 1892 and 1894 documents.

If the bounce is not well formed, it also tries to extract some useful information. Exim is supported, partially. Please send bounce messages from your busted MTA, I'll extend the class to support them.

It can extract the the address of the recipient that bounced as well the mail server response status code.

Sending newsletters or other types of messages to many users is a task that presents certain challenges that need to be handled in an appropriate manner. One of such challenges is to deal with messages that bounce due to temporary or permanent delivery problems.

This class can parse bounced messages and extract the address that is bouncing and determine the severity of the bouncing problem. This allows developers to treat the bounced messages properly, for instance suspending the delivery of further messages, or maybe try again later.
