Anyone else using John Simpson's mailhub technique (http://qmail.jms1.net/mailhub.shtml) for filtering inbound email?
I'm triggering a rebuild of the valid recipient list via vpopmail's "onchange" feature, with the following script (comments removed for brevity): #!/bin/sh PATH="/usr/bin:/bin" logger -t onchange "$*" echo onchange "$@" > /tmp/update-qmail & But I think I've run into an issue where vpopmail blocks until the completion of the write to pipe /tmp/update-qmail. This is problematic when someone is deleting a bunch of users, because they end up waiting for one deletion to complete before doing another, and the qmail-updater service rebuilds the list of valid recipients repeatedly. I added the trailing "&" to the echo command, in an attempt to get it to run in the background, but it hasn't helped. Has anyone else seen this? I'd really like to modify the setup so that the update script flushes the pipe whenever it can; accepting multiple lines of "onchange" data each time. -- Tom Collins t...@tomlogic.com !DSPAM:4f5687dd34174670517420!
