Autor: Yvan Masson Data: Dla: exim-users Temat: [exim] Some mails are queued, other are sent immediately
Hi,
I am new to Exim. I use it so that Debian servers can send me
notifications (through a smarthost).
First, maybe I should use a simpler MTA but I need :
- queueing (it can happen that the server has not Internet connection
and I do not want to lost any notification)
- ability to rewrite subject (this help recognize which server sent the
mail without having to look the email headers)
- ability to use a smarthost (and thus ability to rewrite "From:" header)
Anyway, during tests I noticed that some emails are sent immediately
(what I prefer), while other are queued (introducing useless delay):
- Why this difference ?
- What could I do to avoid the queue ?
Here is a sample log showing a two emails behaving differently:
