Hello! I have two routers in a row that serve the purpose of forking a copy of a mail to one system while delivering the very same mail to another system, too. I need this for testing a system without affecting the real mail flow.
The routers are simple manualroute routers with fixed destinations. The only option set is 'same_domain_copy_routing' to speed up things: the system is the main entry point to a mid-volume enterprise system and I do not rely on the local part at all. They get fed mails based on decision earlier routers take, so no decision is needed on these two - we know what we got. These are the routers in question: external_copy: driver = manualroute condition = yes transport = external_smtp route_data = 192.168.1.20 same_domain_copy_routing unseen = yes external: driver = manualroute transport = external_smtp route_data = 192.168.1.1 same_domain_copy_routing This is the transport both use: external_smtp: driver = smtp interface = 192.168.1.100 tls_certificate = /some/file tls_privatekey = /some/otherfile no_tls_tempfail_tryclear hosts_randomize = true The problem I encounter is: The first router gets a mail with, say, 13 recipients to process, whereas the second router only gets fed 7 recipients afterwards. I understood the 'unseen' option as follows: The second router should get a 100% copy of the mail the first one got. I. e., no matter wether the first router is successful in delivering or not, the addresses are in every case given to the second router. Am I wrong in that point? If I am wrong, how could I implement forking away a copy of each email to a different host? I guess a shqdow_transport is not what I need? I'm running a self-compiled exim 4.71 on a minimized Debian Lenny system. Compile options are available, for sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
