Erich filed a wishlist bug, with a patch, to make EoC use different exit codes than before for certain situations. This has been mentioned before, and I like the idea. My only worry is whether it is too big a behavioral change to do for a 1.2 release.
EoC list: do you think anything depends on the current exit codes of the EoC command? Tommi especially, you have a habit of writing stuff on top of EoC. ke, 2006-01-04 kello 19:59 +0100, Erich Schubert kirjoitti: > Attached patch will use a "short" error reporting in --incoming mode, > and use appropriate exit codes (from the os module) for common errors. > When used as a postfix pipe transport, EoC used to report exceptions > wrapped into a single line; thus causing a really ugly error message. > > by using appropriate exit codes in sys.exit(), postfix (as does > procmail) understands what the type of error is, and will produce a > nicer error message; by printing just a tiny bit of additional information > this hopefully makes much more sense to the user: > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: user unknown.
