It should do, as per RFC.

The last I checked about a year ago (not sure if EE has put any other 
patches in since then, I don't see them in the docs) QMT will try and 
send the message according to the RFC (selecting priority by availbale 
MX records).  Where the problem with QMT lies is that if it contacts a 
MX record and it answers, it won't retry any others.  If the MX record 
it contacts gives it a deferral or error, QMT will continue to send to 
that MX until it's delivered or it bounces (queuelifetime).  If the MX 
record it answers does NOT establish a SMTP session then it will move on 
the the next MX according to RFC standards.

Was that what you were looking for?

Re: [qmailtoaster] muliple mx retry

2008-05-09 Thread Raj

in my install it does not work. and there are patches to take care of this

but how to get them in qmail toaster is big question.

i tried the archives but there is no proper answer

can somebody with experience, who can say for sure, - please help ?

i found this website which refers to this
http://www.dt.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de/~ma/qmail-bugs.html

raj


 Yeah, it *should*. I do recall though that the stock qmail program had a
 problem in this area. I don't know if one of the many toaster patches
 fixes
 that behavior or not. Have you searched that list archives?

This is one for EE to handle.

If you're up to it, you can try modifying the qmailtoaster.spec file
yourself to try including the patch. I don't know if it would conflict with
another patch or not.
