## DIAGNOSTICS
    Warning: Avoid program abuse: specify an absolute path for $exec.
        Specifying explicit locations for executables of email transfer
        agents should only be done with absolute file names, to avoid
        various pontential security problems.

    Warning: Executable $exec does not exist.
        The explicitly indicated mail transfer agent does not exists. The
        normal settings are used to find the correct location.

    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.
