I'm running IMail v8.02 on Windows 2000 Server SP4 etc, and am now running declude.exe 1.76i28; today I saw an HTML style spam come through with no declude headers. The log did have one line for this message:

11/27/2003 15:23:41 Q875e044a00daa57c Could not lock D:\IMail\spool\Q875e044a00daa57c.SMD; timed out (j=2).

This will occur if either the D*.SMD file disappears when Declude is starting, or if a program is locking it for more than 30 seconds. This could happen, for example, if you are running an on-access virus scanner that deletes the D*.SMD file. But that can't be the case here, because the E-mail was delivered. More likely is that something locked the file for some reason.


My query for Scott is: as of interim 28, declude.exe now always logs something if the message couldn't be handled, correct? So perhaps there is a grammar or pattern in the log we can use to find these error messages?

No. The latest interim release just logs to C:\Declude.log for every E-mail that is processed. It does not record any information about processing the E-mail.
