Assunto: [exim] Patch - count queue length ignoring bounces
Please find a link to a patch to exim-4.67 below.

It introduces the option: -bpcb
Ie -bpc (count entries in the queue) with 'b' to ignore bounces as
bounces are often uninteresting and only get in the way when trying to
see how many interesting mails are queued up. Part of my motivation
was looking at what Nagios does.

It occurs to be that I could easily provide another 2 options:

1) -bpcB which would count entries in the queue but ONLY count bouces

2) -bpb which would show entries in the queue but not show bounces

Please review & test the patch and discuss if you would like me to code
either of the 2 extra options above.


You will find the patch at:

This file will be automatically removed in a month.


Cheers
