I think the mail system is exceptionally well-functioning. It&apos;s a massively-scalable, decentralized, asynchronous messaging system that supports large file attachments. At this, it excels. There&apos;s not one big evil company controlling all messages and unless you&apos;re sending massive amounts of emails every day, your messages almost always end up exactly where they&apos;re supposed to. I&apos;d challenge anybody to do better.&lt;p&gt;The author&apos;s main gripe is Mailer Daemon messages. It&apos;s not &lt;i&gt;email&apos;s&lt;/i&gt; fault that people write shitty clients that don&apos;t display a pretty failure message. If your car doesn&apos;t have anti-lock breaks, it&apos;s not the road&apos;s fault when you hit a patch of ice and slam into a tree.&lt;p&gt;Email is great not only because it works simply and beautifully, but because it&apos;s so extendable. People think it&apos;s broken. It&apos;s not. It&apos;s just simple...and it&apos;s this same simplicity that makes it easy to build on top of. Look at Gmail or Xobni. Both have incredible features that &quot;email&quot; doesn&apos;t have because they took the time to build extras on top that make it work nicely.&lt;p&gt;Email is NOT broken. There&apos;s nothing to fix. Whatever fixes you think it needs &lt;i&gt;you can make yourself&lt;/i&gt;. The underlying platform works great. If you have a problem, write/patch a client.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>This is the mail system</title><url>http://dewith.com/2012/this-is-the-mail-system/</url></story>

This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com. I&apos;m afraid I wasn&apos;t able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I&apos;ve given up. Sorry it didn&apos;t work out. : 72.1.169.10 does not like recipient. Remote host said: 550 : Recipient address rejected: undeliverable address: unknown user: &quot;[list name]&quot; Giving up on 72.1.169.10.&lt;p&gt;That&apos;s a pretty good error message. Most people glaze over as soon as they see it.&lt;p&gt;Most people ignore the content of error messages as soon as they realize what they&apos;re reading. An awfully large percentage of people ignore it entirely.&lt;p&gt;I don&apos;t know what to do about people.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>This is the mail system</title><url>http://dewith.com/2012/this-is-the-mail-system/</url></story>
