hi.
i've just put this line into the valias-mysql-table
+--------+----------+-------------------------------------------------+
| alias | domain | valias_line |
+--------+----------+-------------------------------------------------+
| bla | test.com | /var/qmail/domains/test.com/postmaster/Maildir/ |
+--------+----------+-------------------------------------------------+
now i tried to send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and got the maillog-line below because i
made a mistake in the directory-line ('/vpopmail/' is missing, correct is:
/var/qmail/vpopmail/domains/test.com/postmaster/Maildir/
Aug 19 22:53:57 s1 qmail: 998254437.166753 delivery 7: success:
can_not_open_new_email_file_errno=2_file=/var/qmail/domains/test.de/postmaster/Maildir/tmp/998254437.6002.s1.mystic.org,S=191/vdelivermail:_valiases_processed/did_0+0+1/
the bug is that vdelivermail/valias wasn't able to successfully write the mail to disk
but it reports 'sucess' to qmail. this is why it is deleted in the qmail-queue... at
least i think so. shouldn't it bounce or at least stay in the queue? i think just
'deleting' a not deliverable message isn't that good ;-)
... i corrected the valias_line so the path is correct and now everything works :)
but: is there a way to not have the full path in the valias_line field? so that
'./postmaster/Maildir/' or so is enough...
criteria for valias:
if the line starts with a '|' -> execute a command
if the line starts with a './' or a '/' -> local delivery
if the value contains a @-sign -> it is a forward
the last criteria is maybe useless because if no one of the first two criterias match
it must be a forward ... (at least i think so. maybe i'm wrong ;-)
thanks for reading :)
cheers,
blinky
PS: ohhh.. btw: another field called 'rang' or so would be nice so it is possible to
define in which order delivery should happen. the sql-command in vdelivermail will
than need something like 'order by rang' in addition.
