--- Comment #2 from Jeremy Harris <[email protected]> --- "src/retry.c" line 658 if (message_length > 150) message_length = 150; I don't know if that comment (BDB having a fixed record size) is still true. It doesn't help that the documentation for DBD is abstruse or nonexistent. One of the reasons to move away from it. Meantime, Exim does support building with alternate DB libraries: gdbm or tdb. I don't see mention of limits in their docs. A build with gdbm and with that restriction relaxed sailed through the testsuite, apart from the one testcase that checks the retry DB resulting from a stupidly long 550 response to RCPT. Naturally, with such a relaxation you would be increasing your exposure to a malicious actor (yes, one you are trying to send to - but consider bounces). They could inflate your retry DB by that factor. -- 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/ ##
