The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Olivier Salaün <address@concealed>]

Hi Ryann,

The bounce parsing code in Sympa in not able to analyse 100% of bounces 
and therefore it needs to evolve to adapt to new types of non-delivery 
reports.

It looks like the sample you provided did not get properly parsed 
because of the Status: line that includes the code + some text. I've 
extended the regular expression in Sympa code to ignore these texts. 
Here is the (small) patch :
