Subject: RE: [exim-announce] Exim 4.87 Released
I have found some problems with remote deliveries or delivery logging,
cannot really say which..
Upgraded from 4.84 to 4.87 and on exactly one fairly busy production system
a small portion (~5%) of deliveries are not logged properly.
Grepping a specific message id from the log finds only the following lines
(sensitive data replaced by xxx):
2016-04-18 20:34:58 1asD4c-0002xi-2T <= xxx@xxx U=root P=spam-scanned
S=33688 id=20160418203458-gktif3jm2yzc@xxx T="xxx" from <xxx@xxx> for
xxx@xxx
2016-04-18 20:36:16 1asD4c-0002xi-2T Completed
I have actually no idea if the message has been delivered or not. Has
anything changed in the logging code that could either explain the seemingly
random lack of logging, or cause the message to somehow fail without
explanation and just mark it as completed?
The problems are not tied to specific recipients or remote hosts, as I have
examples in the logs where the exact recipient has had successfully logged
deliveries on one day, and a failure like above on another.
The only thing special on the only system where I have found this kind of
logging problems, is that the server is doing mass-sending of emails using a
dozen outgoing interfaces. Messages are routed to interface-specific
smtp-transports using a hash of the recipient address. Can something in the
switching of outgoing interfaces during delivery cause logging problems or
silent delivery failures?
