Hi,
I'm trying to work out how to get more info into my logs, in order to track a problem one of our customers is having when sending mail to us.
I have his log output (which is more than I usually get :-) ), and a fleeting glimpse of it in my log.
His log says:
--- Session Transcript --- Tue 2004-07-27 22:00:54: Parsing Message <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\pd90000001178.msg> Tue 2004-07-27 22:00:54: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue 2004-07-27 22:00:54: To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue 2004-07-27 22:00:54: Subject: RE: Kingdom in Houston Tue 2004-07-27 22:00:54: Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Tue 2004-07-27 22:00:54: MX-record resolution of [justcroft.com] in progress (DNS Server: 127.0.0.1)...

I found the MX for his domain and got the IP address of his mail server, then grepped that in my maillog, and all I have is lots of instances of
Jul 27 11:00:05 alien courieresmtpd: started,ip=[::ffff:203.59.129.54]
(His server is in australia, mine in the UK, so this particular log entry corresponds to the log he sent...)
There's no follow-up to this "started" entry - which I suppose matches the timeout in his log.
Is there anyway to have more information logged about connections? I can't see any configurations which affect logging levels.
I really want to be able to demonstrate that this problem is out of my control - I suspect a misconfiguration on the remote end, since most people manage to send us mail perfectly well.
