Bug ID: 2310
Summary: event_action fires/expands with -Mg flag, but not with
-Mrm
Product: Exim
Version: 4.91
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Queues
Assignee: nigel@???
Reporter: m.kurz@???
CC: exim-dev@???
When forcing a message to fail and bounce as "cancelled by administrator" via
"exim -Mg <message-id>" an event with event_name="msg:fail:internal" and
event_data="delivery cancelled by administrator" gets fired per (undelivered)
recipient. Plus eventually the "msg:complete" event gets fired.
You can see this behaviour in test 5700 for message-id "10HmbC-0005vi-00":

I would expect the same behaviour when removing a message from the queue via
"exim -Mrm <message-id>" (which doesn't send a bounce), however this isn't the
case. No event get's fired at all, not even "msg:complete" (!) - which is even
more surprising given the fact that the mainlog even logs "Completed" for such
a removed message:

2018-09-07 12:53:48 1fyEOV-00074t-Pk Completed

I tried to provide a patch, however, given that the last time I programmed in C
was 16 years ago and I don't really have time to get familiar with the exim
code base I would be really happy if some experienced exim dev shows up and
provides a patch ;)
Thanks for the great work!
