DIAGNOSTICS

       Error: Errors when closing Qmail mailer $program: $!
           The Qmail mail transfer agent did start, but was not able to handle the message for some specific
           reason.

       Warning: Message has no destination
           It was not possible to figure-out where the message is intended to go to.

       Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
           Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where
           it should. This message means that some other related classes do implement this method however the
           class at hand does not.  Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author of the
           package.

       Warning: Resent group does not specify a destination
           The message which is sent is the result of a bounce (for instance created with
           Mail::Message::bounce()), and therefore starts with a "Received" header field.  With the "bounce",
           the new destination(s) of the message are given, which should be included as "Resent-To",
           "Resent-Cc", and "Resent-Bcc".

           The "To", "Cc", and "Bcc" header information is only used if no "Received" was found.  That seems to
           be the best explanation of the RFC.

           As alternative, you may also specify the "to" option to some of the senders (for instance
           Mail::Transport::SMTP::send(to) to overrule any information found in the message itself about the
           destination.
