Failure Notice

I sent an email this afternoon to a faulty address. The email came back undelivered. I guess I've never really paid attention to the short failure message before, but today I read it and it almost made me laugh outloud. Here it is:

"Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out."

Isn't that a sweet note? Actually the last line sounds like it might be breaking up with me.
