Hello Gurus,
I have an interesting problem here. Exim-4.10 with procmail as LDA.
I have a local user who sends mail (local server) to other local users,
but what happens is that whereas the e-mail gets delivered, this user
gets an error still, like this:
<cut>
Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim).
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
fred@???
local delivery failed
------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------
------ The body of the message is 31095 characters long; only the first
------ 5120 or so are included here.
</cut>
I am unable to reproduce this error myself and therefore I am stuck.
Another second instance is where this same user sends an e-mail to me.
This time I see an error like this in the mainlog:
2002-10-08 10:54:54 17ypCf-00021Q-00 ** wash@??? R=procmail T=procmail_pipe: Child process of procmail_pipe
transport returned 74 (could mean input/output error) from command: /usr/local/bin/procmail
I'm actually lost for words to explain this. Some mail get delivered to me while
some don't. I am not doing any special filtering for the senders whose mail is
bouncing.
Maybe someone can help advise on some diagnostic methods, apart from exim -d.
Thanking you.
-Wash
