I am running the Qmail Toaster as available from www.qmailtoaster.com. (vpopmail-toaster-5.3.8).
There's something about the behavior of the .qmail files in the individual vpopmail account directories that I don't understand.
If a program invoked from a .qmail file returns an exit status of 99 (per qmail-command man page) shouldn't it just stop processing the qmail file? It seems to be deferring the message and trying to redeliver it later.
I have a test domain "vpopmail.yml.com" and a user "test". The account directory I have is:
/home/vpopmail/domains/vpopmail.yml.com/test/
In it I have a ".qmail" file containing, for demonstration:
|/tmp/test.pl /home/vpopmail/domains/vpopmail.yml.com/test/Maildir/
test.pl contains:
#!/usr/bin/perl print "This is a test"; exit( 99 );
What I am noticing is that the message is being deferred and dropped into the queue:
@400000003fc81ac413506794 info msg 1491341: bytes 955 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 6929 uid 89

@400000003fc81ac4171c020c status: local 0/10 remote 0/255
This doesn't seem right.
If I set the exit code to 100 in test.pl I get
@400000003fc81ddc253b3a24 new msg 1491355
@400000003fc81ddc253c3bf4 info msg 1491355: bytes 955 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 7501 uid 89

Shouldn't it bounce?
By comparison I tried the same experiment using the /home/vpopmail/domains/vpopmail.yml.com/.qmail-defaults file.
test.pl with exit code of 100 yields:
@400000003fc81e2917a81954 new msg 1491361

@400000003fc81e292b17b33c end msg 1491362
(and i get a failure notice as I would expect)
test.pl with an exit code of 99 yields:
@400000003fc81e6014fc100c new msg 1491355
@400000003fc81e6014fd67cc info msg 1491355: bytes 955 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 7520 uid 89

@400000003fc81e6018ad38fc end msg 1491355
which is also what I would expect.
I am not that familiar with vpopmail yet so correct me if I'm wrong but it's vdelivermail called from the domains/domain/.qmail-default file that actually processes the per-account .qmail files? Right?
Looking at run_command() in vqmaillocal.c it does not seem that the exit code of the launched process is being examined .. if a line it found it looks like it's exiting with a value of 0.
What am I missing?
thanks,

P.S. BTW, the Vpopmail/qmail combo simply rocks.
