Hi
Today I was waked up by one of my mailservers complaining about exims panic
log.
I found these entries:
2011-05-08 13:04:42 unknown named local part list "+giorgio.marchese"
2011-05-08 13:11:39 unknown named local part list "+giorgio.marchese"
2011-05-08 13:31:22 unknown named local part list "+giorgio.marchese"
2011-05-08 14:04:41 unknown named local part list "+giorgio.marchese"
2011-05-08 14:51:30 unknown named local part list "+giorgio.marchese"
Now I cannot find the source for those.
The exim4.conf file was not changed within the last weeks.
I took down the system and scanned it externally using clamav but nothing
either.
I am running ubuntu 8.04 LTS, which has exim 4.69 plus some patches.
However the exim4.conf file is handwritten, so debian directories here...
Looking into the main.log for that times, I also did not find anything that
would had helped me.
Any hint, where to continue the search would be appreciated...
Best regards,
Steffen
Steffen,
I suspect the '+' is what is at odds with an acl or router clause,
perhaps one unique to your setup, so a debug run with that specific
$local_part AND/OR one(s) of similar structure should tell the tale.
Otherwise ...
Set 'log_selector = +all' (temporarily) and see if it recurs.
If so, grep ~/mainlog or ~/main.log for (part of) the offending string.
Note the PID.
Grep on that PID to get the surrounding info.
Back down the 'log_selector = ' to something less verbose thereafter.
FWIW, fro production use, I have:
log_selector = +all -all_parents -queue_run -arguments -rejected_header
And optionally: -host_lookup_failed
(custom build with more specific message on that one)
Result is a reasonably terse log, yet plenty of tracking info.
HTH,
Bill
