Hi all!

Have you noticed, that the mails that are passed to sendmail but for some
reason could not be delivered by sendmail (and therefore stay in
sendmail's deferred queue) does not show up in
"SCA"-"Server Info"-"Queues"-"Deferred Mail"!

Is it feature or is it a bug? :o)

Cheers

Vladimir.

The deferred mail queue is specific to Scalix. If a client sends a mail to be delivered at a certain time, it will be put on the deferred mail queue. Similarly, if you have message delivery rulesets that defer mail based on conditions, the same happens.

Sendmail is outside of Scalix's scope when it comes to any of the Scalix monitoring tools. This uses a different queue in /var/spool/mqueue.

Cheers
