Hi Max,
>Well, I put my new iMS server into production early this morning, and it
works! Yes, of course I expected it to, but it's still cool :-) No more
open spam relay with NTMail! woohoo!
>
>Anyway, pardon my excitement...
Not at all, I agree with it. I remember when we went live with a production
server back at the beginning of the year and dumped NTMail, it was a great
feeling :-)
>What's the point of the BadMes folder? I see delivery failures in POST
log with null returns (from a list, so as it should be), and I expect the
bad messages to appear in the BadMes folder (ala NTMail's BadMes folder).
But they just disappear. Can I enable them to be saved in BadMes somehow?
They used to go into the BadMes folder in earlier versions, that is one
thing that I have not caught up on yet with the new versions.
>Also I see MX lookups failing occasionally. .... However, iMS apparently
gave up looking for a MX, and deleted the outgoing mail file, after
claiming a timeout from all DNS servers. ..... Anyone else notice this?
What could be happening? This is especially disturbing considering what I
said above-- that the bad email just gets deleted. I should say that I had
no MX resolution problems with my previous mail system, using the same DNS
servers.
I have just noticed the same and was about to comment on it. I was away for
the weekend, its Monday morning here now :-(, and on checking the logs when
I got back as the traffic seemed very low, particularly on the Lists, I saw
quite a few lost mails like that.
