--- Comment #1 from Jeremy Harris <[email protected]> --- Does the caveat on the "timeout" option apply? In order to ensure that any subprocesses created by the command are also killed, Exim makes the initial process a process group leader, and kills the whole process group on a timeout. However, this can be defeated if one of the processes starts a new process group. If it does, we have no way to kill the subprocess and returning while leaving it running would likely result in further, and more complex, problems later when the delivery was retried. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
