There is a (vauge) wish to assign an id earlier than now, which would help a bit. But it makes no sense to assign a message id until a MAIL command is received. If you turn on log_selector=+smtp_connection the log will contain a start and end connection line. Using the IP address this should help sort out an individual connection, though I guess if a client makes two or more simultaneous connections it won't be clear. Adding a PID would not be liked by those whose log files are already many megabytes long, but of course it would be an option. In the past I would have just added this idea to the Wish List, but now that it is in Bugzilla it is probably better if you add it, because then its origin will be properly recorded. -- Philip Hazel University of Cambridge Computing Service Get the Exim 4 book: http://www.uit.co.uk/exim-book -- ## 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/
