Ah - have to test that. No, not in that form anyway... - I am only using the :panic: construct in logwrites and log_message My log_selector, OTOH: log_selector = +all -queue_run -arguments When 'testing' as I don't care to keep two consoles tailing main and panic. For a production box you might use: -all (to kill the defaults), then +<option> add back only a few. (tested) Don't forget that many jurisdictions have laws requiring retention of (at least): timestamp, from, to, subject Where ISTR the from and to are both the message and the servers, and period of retention varies. Some countries even want the messages archived.... :-( - and no, please let's not start with the politics of all that, this one was NOT my doing, and I didn't vote for *either* Bush or Blair.. ;-) Bill -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
