Hello Everyone!
I need to insert something like
X-MY-ID-some-unique-ID
into each email's header for local tracking purposes.
Why a separate header, why not just:
enable_long_queue_ids = yes
and use the queue ID that's already in your top Received: header?
(Legacy note: that option was introduced in the now-EOL Postfix
version 2.9. If you're not on 2.10 or later you should be.)
I have v3.1 running on that box. A long queue was in my mind all day,
but as I need that header in a specific format (I don't have control
over that as that part is not my work), I was thinking of copying it,
but still digging on that matter.
Thanks
The unique ID doesn't have to be some complicated hash, it can be
something like the <message-id>+<date> or <date><time> ... which
would be mostly unique.
Any ideas if such a thing could be done with just prepending in
header checks, without external filtering?
You can't do this with postfix alone.
You would not need a full external filter, but you could use a
policy service or a tcp table, either of which are fairly simple and
lightweight.
Or you could just use the Message-ID as your mostly-unique identifier.
