It was about changing environments while in queue.
There's two parts to this. 1) (The bit Evgeny spoke to): Once a message is frozen, that frozen state is on the message in the spool. The configuration is not relevant. 2) The Exim configuration file is not reloaded automatically by the exim daemon if it changes. It is documented that SIGHUP should be used (the traditional Unix method) to tell it to do so. Child processes of the daemon (message acceptance, transport, queue-runner processes) get the config loaded by the daemon. Individually started exim processes, eg. for command-line mail submission, will get the then-current state of the config file. "Configuration" here is not only the config file itself but also any files pulled in via .include directives. It does *not* cover the content of external files or databases used via lookups in the configuration, nor results from external processes. -- Cheers, Jeremy -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
