Hi,

Erik Browning <erik@???> (Mi 03 Feb 2016 22:42:22 CET):

> Lately our requirements have changed and I have implemented some custom logic and log generation through an exim system filter. The problem I have is that with "queue_only" set the messages don't generate the log event right away because the system filter only runs on message delivery. I tested a setup where the "queue_only" is disabled an the system filter freezes the message for later delivery. This writes the log events in a timelier fashion but produces a lot of "system frozen by message filter" warnings that I would like to suppress. We process ~100,000,000 messages/day so that is a lot of extra data to collect/process in our logging system and I am actively trying to cut down all the extraneous log lines that I can (eg: retry time not reached).


Can't you implement the new requirement in the DATA acl or even in the
QUIT acl? (About QUIT I'm not sure if it fires even on connection loss
after the final dot.)

    Best regards from Dresden/Germany
    Viele Grüße aus Dresden
