Last time I checked, the scripts provided by suck should replace the file. They copy the outgoing file away, and then flush it (which closes the old outgoing and creates a new one). Here's the relevant bit of script: if [ ! -s ${OUTGOINGNEW} ]; then mv ${OUTGOING} ${OUTGOINGNEW} ${CTLINND} flush ${SITE} fi with a large comment beforehand explaining what's going on. I've never used the Debian package, though. > Does anyone have any idea? Is it bug and should I report > it? No idea.
