Re: Files left in /var/spool/smtpd question

Since $self->disconnect will do an exit after it calls the disconnect hooks, you don't need the return in front of it. I'm wondering if the same problem also occurs on a timeout. Jim James H. Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "Robert J

disconnect hooks not being executed in all cases

Also in Qpsmtpd/TcpServer.pm, in 'sub read_input', it leaves an alarm enabled on exit (if for example the connection is lost before a QUIT is seen) Adding an: alarm 0; as the last statment in this routine would fix this. Jim James H. Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
