Re: [exim] Strange Exim Behaviour

Hi Tony, I'm manually trying to flush the queue with 'exim -v -qff'. Am I incorrect in assuming that if the internet line is already saturated then I must have enough queue runners? Cheers, Marc On Tue, 26 Aug 2008 19:16:48 +0200, Tony Finch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What command are you u

[exim] Strange Exim Behaviour

Hi guys, I've been Exim 4.69 (and previous releases of 4.x) for about a year now but have recently (since last week Saturday) encountered some very strange behaviour from Exim. After having a fairly massive queue dumped on my two servers (around 12,000 messages each totalling around 45GB)

[exim] Logging stats via script?

Hi guys, I'm looking for a little bit of guidance here from all the experts. Basically what I'm trying to do is get Exim to run a script for every successfully sent/received mail it deals with. Ideally I'd like to pass the sender/recipient and size of the message to a script which will the

[exim] strange problem

Hi guys, I have a host running exim 4.68 that handles mail for the discoverylink.co.za domain. Since this past weekend I have started seeing the following in my rejectlogs: 2008-02-05 11:17:49 SMTP protocol synchronization error (next input sent too soo n: pipelining was advertised): rejec

Re: [exim] Filtering non-iso

Hi there, I'm sure there is a better way to do this, but off the top of my head I'm sure you could achieve this using a system filter. Something like: if ($message_headers does not contain "your valid charset here") then seen finish endif That said I'm not sure exactly how reliable this w

Re: [exim] retrieving attachments from /var/log/exim/outgoing

Hi there, I may be wrong, but unless you have some very odd sort of configuration the exim log files do not store the contents of messages, making it impossible to view and/or resend mails. Cheers, Marc On Tue, 11 Dec 2007 15:26:46 +0200, John Clement <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I need t

Re: [exim] The next Exim release - will there be one ?

Hi David, You only have to take a look around this mailing list to realise that Exim is fiercely loved by those of us who use it. I have every faith in the developers that Exim will continue to be well maintained and feature rich going forward. Personally, I'm not looking to move away from

[exim] queue_only

Hi, I am specifically interested in using the queue_only method to defer mail until after hours for a particular MTA. I have this working correctly. My question is this... will Exim be able to cope with +- 200,000 mails in it's queue (on average around 3.9 GB for all these mails) comfortably, or

[exim] Forced delaying/freezing of mail?

Hi guys, I have a business requirement to delay all mail on a particular server until after business hours. We currently have Postfix doing this for us, but we're moving everything to Exim and I was wondering if there is a way to do this? ie, allow mail to flow into my system all day, but only r

[exim] ACL weirdness?

Hey guys, I have an ACL which I'm using to effectively block some of the .PDF spam. I've added a list of whitelisted addresses to the ACL but Exim doesn't seem to be taking note of them. Is something wrong with my ACL, or am I missing something here? My ACL: deny message= $found_extensi

[exim] high availability mailboxes... ?

Hi guys, This may be a little out of scope for this mailing list, but I have a quick question regarding high availability. I currently have a requirement to provide high availability mailboxes (via IMAP) to a few hundred mailboxes. The obvious solution here would be to use something like NFS to

Re: [exim] Attachment blocking for some domains

Hi there, I'm a bit of a newbie on this list, but I believe you need to do this in the acl_check_data section. Something like: denymessage = No attachments allowed to this domain. demime = * senders = [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc etc. Cheers, Marc On Fri, Jul 27, 2007 at 06:2

[exim] randomize not working as expected

Hey guys, I am currently responsible for the administration of four exim servers (running 4.66) which we utilize as our inbound MX servers. Mail for our domain is then manually routed via the exim machines back to our main offices using the manualroute option over a compressed ssh tunnel. I'm us
