Hello out there,


after solving my lmtp problem with your help i discovered
another problem.
I use the following sieve script to redirect messages to my
brother who is on an exchange in the United Staates for a year.
The mail should get forwarded to his hotmail account but we
want to keep a copy of every mail so that he has the same
mailbox when he comes back.

-- sieve.script of user flo on mailserver

if address :contains :all ["to" , "cc" , "bcc"]
 "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" {
         redirect "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
         keep;}

 elsif address :contains :all ["to", "cc", "bcc"]
 "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" { redirect
         "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
         keep;}
--

the problem is. If i write a mail to flo[rian]@proescholdt.de
it is delivered to his mailbox on the server, but the
redirection from cyrus to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
stays in the queue for nearly half an hour before it is sent
out.
The same mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] gehts
out at once. The server does not have any relevant load.

/var/log/mail says

Jan 14 18:38:46 raidserver sendmail[12713]: f0EHC0v12711: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], ctladdr=cyrus (52/12),
delay=00:26:46, xdelay=00:26:46, mailer=smtp, pri=30812, 
relay=fmrlallmx.t-online.com. [194.25.134.92], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent 
(Message accepted.)

is this a failure or a feature? (bouncing mail)
And if true is it possible to switch it off?
I could not find anything about a kind of delay feature in
the sieve internet draft.

im running cyrus 2.07 on linux 2.2.14

greetings
timo
