Onderwerp: Re: [exim] Logging to a database
We log directly to a database here with a combination of condition acl's
and an accept router that use the ${lookup directive to run an insert
statement. We have the lookup always return 1 to prevent a problem if
there is a database write problem. It is, of course, a hackish thing -
but it works very very well.
