Is there a way to see the original sent email from the contents of a returned, undeliverable email?
Thanks!

yes... it should all be there... maybe... it depends on the returning daemon... some remove the contents, only sparing just enough of the headers so that it can return it ... others make the email do a complete about-face and return it in its entirety.

I have the returned email and it has a lot of garbaldy-gook in it. It has a block of text that reminds me of UUEncoded text files.
Is there some software out there that can "decode" these returned mails to determine the original mail that was sent?
Google yields no answer...

The original text should be included amongst the garbled text.Originally Posted by Dave Sell

No, there is no plain text, only garbled text amid a bunch of cryptic keywords. I was hoping there is some crappy utility out there that automagically recovers the original message...?

Just out of morbid curiosity... is there are reason for needing/wanting to get to the text?

Too morbid for public discourse
