Yes, we use the Error field only in this case:
sprintf(buffer + strlen(buffer),
"Disposition: automatic-action/MDN-sent-automatically;
%s\r\n",
level == RECIPIENT_LEVEL_OK ?
"dispatched":"processed/error");
if (level != RECIPIENT_LEVEL_OK) {
sprintf(buffer + strlen(buffer), "Error: %s %s\r\n",
statusCode, messageStr);
}
"level" would be unequal to RECIPIENT_LEVEL_OK if the TIFF reader or BASE64
decoder reported an error to the SMTP server. The value of statusCode
and messageStr are set by the TIFF reader or BASE64 decoder to help diagnose
the problem.
