Hi Scott:

failed" lines in LOGLEVEL MID? <<

Nes or rather Yo <G>

I don't need the "message failed" lines for any of the IP based tests -
because I can easily run the IP against the specific test listed in the
summary line.

However, I've already had several occasions where I struggled to get
information from the client, whenever a BADHEADER, SPAMHEADER or FILTER was
involved.  It is now impossible to determine the REASON why an email failed
a header or filter test. 

My previous suggestion had been to expand the summary line to include a
"reason" code, e.g., BADHEADER(80001004), SPAMFILTER(37), WHITELIST(IP)  for
BADHEADER reason code or SPAMFILTER line number or WHITELIST reason.

The goal should be to make MID level logging LESS VERBOSE - but NOT less
informative.

Best Regards
Andy Schmidt

Correct.

Although LOGLEVEL HIGH may be about 5 times the size of LOGLEVEL MID *now*, 
the LOGLEVEL HIGH now is only slightly larger than the LOGLEVEL MID in 
previous versions.  I just checked a sample E-mail, and the new LOGLEVEL 
HIGH was only about 12% larger than the old LOGLEVEL MID.

So if you were using LOGLEVEL MID, you shouldn't see much difference going 
to LOGLEVEL high.  That extra 12% should help make up for the bloated 500% 
extra that people were seeing at LOGLEVEL LOW in the past.

Let me ask people: do you think that it would be better to have the "Msg 
failed" lines in LOGLEVEL MID?
