Hello Owen,
Having relied on
(
http://wiki.exim.org/FAQ/Configuration_cookbook/Q9807 as the
reference, did you end up setting up a suitable retry rule as
recommended or does it just work automagically when the first queue
run is fired?
I intend to use the following modification to delay messages from some
users for 10 minutes:
delay_outgoing:
driver = redirect
domains = !+local_domains : !+relay_to_domains
senders = ! : lsearch;/usr/local/etc/exim/delayed_senders
condition = ${if < {$message_age}{360}{yes}{no}}
allow_defer
data = :defer: message not old enough
no_verify
I have been asked to implement this to allow my bosses to recall mail
(i.e. ask me to delete it from the queue to stop it from being sent if
they change their mind after hitting "Send/Receive" in Outlook:-)
In my situation, since Exim runs with "-bd -q30m", I am thinking I
need to craft a special retry rule. However, I must admit I am not
sure what form the rule should take, but I do believe that running
Exim with "-bd -q15m" perhaps eliminates the need for crafting a
special retry rule.
Hi list members , please advise.
