Scott,

There are some minor issues still with logging and processing of whitelisted E-mail.  I'm using WHITELIST AUTH, AUTOWHITELIST ON and PREWHITELIST ON.  Depending on how I whitelist though, I see all sorts of different logging, and on at least two of the methods, PREWHITELIST ON doesn't appear to be working as advertised as it logs fully and runs some filters and/or some DNSBL's.  Here are some examples:

----- WHITELIST AUTH -----
02/28/2004 00:03:19 Q211601d4018ae229 Skipping E-mail from authenticated user [EMAIL PROTECTED]; whitelisted.

----- WHITELIST IP -----

----- WHITELIST SUBJECT -----

Fairly minor, but definitely not intended functionality.

Thanks,

Matt

BTW, I have to throw away lines occasionally because of intermittent CRs
that cause problems with parsing.  For my log parsing, I initially tried to
use SQL Server DTS to isolate fields and parse from there, but SQL would
merge two lines together at times because of a related problem with EOL
characters.  A separate parser is doing better, but still occasionally has
to throw away lines.

I'd like to add my vote to the others for ironing out the few bugs in
logging.

FWIW, I'm not aware of any bugs with logging (as of the latest interim, which fixes an issue where two lines could be combined if certain control characters appeared in the subject).

There are, however, two issues that I'm aware of.  [1] A problem where a flaw in Windows will incorrectly cause corruption to the log file (such as multiple lines getting mixed together), which affects any programs that use multiple processes/threads to save data (including IMail), and [2] The desire for more flexibility in logging (such as choosing whether or not "Msg Failed" lines should appear in the log file).  We're looking into the possibility of changing the logging to bypass the corruption program (by having a centralized process do all the logging), as well as more logging options.  However, these are not currently a high priority.
