Summary: message loss when using multiple deliveries
Product: Exim
Version: 4.71
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Delivery in general
AssignedTo: nigel@???
ReportedBy: mlichvar@???
CC: exim-dev@???
When exim is configured to use multiple deliveries with different routing,
sometimes there are messages that are not delivered to one of the recipients in
all routings.
It seems to happen when there is a duplicated address and one of the deliveries
to the address is deferred (e.g. the mailbox is locked).
Steps to reproduce:
1. in the default exim.conf add an archiving router before localuser router
copymail:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * archive
unseen
2. create alias: test-list: testm1@localhost, testm2@localhost,
testm3@localhost
3. touch /var/spool/mail/testm1.lock
3. echo test | /usr/sbin/exim test-list@localhost testm1@localhost
4. wait 30 seconds
5. rm /var/spool/mail/testm1.lock
6. exim -qf
The message won't be delivered to testm1@localhost in the local delivery, it's
lost after step 4.
The problem seems to be that the address is marked as a duplicate and done in
address_done() in deliver.c after the remote_smtp delivery succeeded.
