I understood that to be the case. My only reasonable thought is that the p-log is slowing the mailing sufficiently for the messages to be delivered, but when it is off the server cannot keep up, and some messages are lost. The missing mbx files issue I sent you on Monday may be related to this as well.
Other possibly related issues we have experienced: When our largest mailing (1.1 mil) is sent out many addresses are not logged at all, as either successes or failures, and this includes addresses I use for personal mail. In some cases the message is delivered, and some cases it is not delivered. Also the messages returned by the post server were a bit muddled for the largest of our lists. In some cases successfully delivered messages were returned in the tempfailedlist or permfailedlist variables, and the server responses included "250 OK" commands and some iMS log messages (such as "*.mbx was successfully delivered to * from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"). -- Regards, Raven -----Original Message----- From: Howie Hamlin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2001 6:33 PM To: inFusion Support List Subject: Re: [iMS] Strange Issue Well, this makes no sense to me either...
