I think a "suppress submission mode" for messages submitted on the command line by trusted users could be useful. > -qGname Run the jobs in the queue group name once. Exim doesn't have queue groups, so this doesn't make sense for us. We have -R and -S. > -qQ[string] and -Q -- quarantine support. The closest Exim has to this is the idea of frozen messages, but the concept is a bit muddled by Exim's double bounce handling. (I have a vague wishlist item which is to offload undeliverable bounces to an appropriate postmaster's inbox and never freeze them.) > -V envid The indicated envid is passed with the envelope of > the message and returned if the message bounces.
