DIAGNOSTICS
Error: Errors when closing Exim mailer $program: $!
The Exim mail transfer agent did start, but was not able to handle
the message correctly.
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.
