Asunto: [Exim] a big exiscan problem
We are using
exim (Version 3.36) + exiscan (perl)

At normal times it works good. But if we have delivery problems,
we get queues with 10000 emails and more which are delayed for a
too long time.

The problem is:

Every delayed message will be ever and ever accessed by exiscan
scanchilds ... too many operations with the files of these messages.


What can I do???

exim 4... with local_scan ... we won't compile it before 11/2002...


Is following possible ???
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

If exiscan scans a message and founds an already scanned message
   --->>> remove message from the origininal spool directory and
          copying of data and header files from this message
          to a separate special spool directory of another exim process,
          which works without "-bd": exim -q... and which operates
          with the special spool directory


  --->>> I hope, that this method can prevent multi-reading of already
         scanned messages by scanchild processes and the delivery of these
         messages works with the normal retry-rules(special db directory
         for this exim configuration)
