I've been hanging on this list since SuSE 5, and in all that time, I have had 1 message dissapear. I wrote to Christopher Mahmood and he had no record of it, but I had it in my sent box. I'm guessing either some computer in the route dropped it, or carnivore accidently ate it, or then again...it might be some psychologist testing me. :-)
I usually don't consider email to be so reliable that I would bet my life on it. But it rarely ever fails to work as expected. I usually get mail back within 1 minute of sending, sometimes even faster.
You can check in /var/log/mail. That will tell you what host it was sent
to. Even if your email client has it in the sent folder does not mean
that the email was successfully sent.
