If it's part of a presorted mailing (not first class) then you have to pay additional fees for it to be returned and specifically request it by adding "Address Service requested" or "Return service requested" But none of that has a lick of salt to do with PHP just throwing out my knowledge since that what I do in my day job :)Is there any way for PHP to know that this email is not going through?You could, perhaps, hack your MTA to notify something somewhere that PHP can check... But it's really out of PHP's hands at this point. If you put a letter in a mailbox, and the USPS fails to deliver it, do you really expect to get notified?
