Hi all,
I was looking into isoqlog and noticed that it does not (for me) generate
accurate stats. But that is not what interests me right now. This is:
Trying to analyze the log file (/var/log/qmail/send/current) to follow what's
going on, I realized something that seems totally whacko to me:
a usual line announcing the processing of a new mail coming into the queue
(regardless of whether it will be sent locally or remotely) looks like this:
@400000004c9f086f31f0149c new msg 6744317
As far as I know, the number after 'msg' is supposed to be used to identify
that message so that you can follow up on it in the logs. I might be wrong,
though. And I hope I am, because this is an excerpt of my log file:
@400000004c9f086f31f01884 info msg 6744317: bytes 23947 from

The same msg id is used twice in a row.
Have I misunderstood how the send log works, or is this really as weird as I
believe it to be?
Thanks,
Martin

I see several numbers being used repeatedly, but never more than one at
a time. I expect this is normal. You might have a look at the
qmail-send.c source to see what the value actually represents. Might be
an inode number?
