We've been here before. If you can find a way to tell that the sender has gone away without trying to read from the input file descriptor, it would also solve the problem of "delay" hanging around when the other end has disappeared. We had a discussion about this about a year ago (?) and concluded that it was not possible. -- 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/
