Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for the reply.

You have a few great points in there.

1) Putting items directly in the queue was not my first choice and I'm certainly open to doing it in a more sustainable way. Can you think of another way? Is there a way to do a "local" delivery that I could setup to bypass all the other stuff and just try to deliver a message I pass it or put it directly in the queue?

2) Thank you for your feedback on how to do a custom acl - I've put in the following custom acl for now.

acl_log_headers:

warn log_message = X-CMS-IssueID $h_X-CMS-IssueID
    condition = ${if def:h_X-CMS-IssueID: {yes}{no}}


warn log_message = X-CMS-ContactID $h_X-CMS-ContactID
    condition = ${if def:h_X-CMS-ContactID: {yes}{no}}


warn log_message = X-CMS-SubscriberID $h_X-CMS-SubscriberID
    condition = ${if def:h_X-CMS-SubscriberID: {yes}{no}}


3) Unfortunately I get an error when I add event_action to my remote_smtp transport.

remote_smtp:
driver = smtp
interface = ${lookup{$primary_hostname}lsearch{/etc/mailips}}
helo_data = $primary_hostname
event_action = ${acl {acl_log_headers}}

I get an error stating option "event_action" unknown.

Is there another build I need or something? I'm running the standard package for centos 6.8 exim version 4.84.

Thanks everyone for your help.

In your transport put something like:
  event_action =        ${acl {log_deliv}}


and define an acl like:
 log_deliv:
   warn  condition =     ${if eq {tcp:connect}{$event_name}}
         condition =     ${if def:host}
         logwrite =      $host: DNSSEC - ${if def:lookup_dnssec_authenticated \
                        {\"$lookup_dnssec_authenticated\"}{unknown}}
   accept


obviously ajusted as needed for your case.

This is fragile.

I hope you realise that Exim, and the developers of Exim, consider the spool to be owned by Exim.
File names, locations, formats and contents are liable to change from release to release.

If it breaks, you get to keep both parts.
