Hi!

I made this patch to qmail-local.c to enable only a temporary error if the
NFS-mounted Homedir is not present:


--- qmail-local.c.orig  Tue May 23 09:11:37 2000
+++ qmail-local.c       Tue May 23 09:11:43 2000
@@ -586,7 +586,7 @@
  qmesearch(&fd,&flagforwardonly);
  if (fd == -1)
    if (*dash)
-     strerr_die1x(100,"Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)");
+     strerr_die1x(111,"Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)");
 
  if (!stralloc_copys(&ueo,sender)) temp_nomem();
  if (str_diff(sender,""))

Some of my users homedirs are mounted over an unreliable network (aka WaveLAN)
that could sometimes fail. I need the qmail-local to just fail temporarily
and try the delivery later again.

Are the any side-effects with this? And how long is the timeout for the
temporary deferral?

Greetings
