I have never looked at this in detail until I saw something funny in
my logs today. To try to condense the issue:
I have an account called dso_exec, which is mirrored to a list of 11
addresses. As it has always done, the level 2 logs show something
along these lines:
11:35:57 2 SMTP-750([63.220.231.176]) {S.0000124882} received, 1422 bytes
11:35:57 2 SYSTEM [S.0000124882]
<p05111b01b940df74448d@[63.220.231.176]> 0+1 From:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
11:35:57 2 SYSTEM [S.0000124882] distributed via dso_exec to 11 addresses
11:35:57 2 SYSTEM(POP) [S.0000124882] delivered to (dso_exec)
11:35:57 2 SYSTEM [S.0000124883]
<p05111b01b940df74448d@[63.220.231.176]> 10+1
From:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
My first question is why does the e-mail show as from
dso_exec-request? I note that my logs have always shown this, so I
suspect it is something that SIMS normally does (the additional
"-request" added on, that is).
The deliveries proceed. It is important to note that one of the
recipients is another account on the SIMS box, "jeglin". The acct
"jeglin" is a mirror to 2 addresses, [EMAIL PROTECTED], and my home
roadrunner address. This is how I have all my e-mails that come to me
at work echo to my house. When I'm at work checking mail, I check the
jeglinx acct. So in summary, the block diagram looks like this:
dso_exec ----+
|
+-+- mirrored to 10 outside addresses
|
+- mirrored to jeglin -+
|
+- mirrored to jeglinx
|
+- mirrored to roadrunner
Today for the first time I notice that there is a rejection in the
logs. Starting with the last line above, I include it all below to
keep from obfuscating anything. I intermix my observations with "->".
Please tell me if I am wrong. The punchline is at the end, a user
unknown rejection by SIMS:

Where did qmail.webpipe.net come in, and why is it sending to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]?
AFAICT, all the messages were delivered, and I got my copy also. I
searched all my logs previous to this, and this is the first time
I've seen this, so it may be transient, but for now it is persistent
(repeat tests show the same thing).
I know this is a tedious technical analysis, but I'd sure appreciate the help!
