After I post a letter, sometimes I see strange messages in response
to the UNIX command "mailq."
For example:
(Deferred: Host Name Lookup Failure)
(Deferred: Connection timed out during user open with Shemp.C)
What do these messages mean? Does their presence have any bearing on
whether the mail will eventually reach its intended recipient? Are there
any manauls or papers documenting these and other mail messages?
