Re: P.O.'s Messages Folder Folly

[Marc Kaiwi <marc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's an example:

The log file will record this:

20031121092331-0800:SMTP-Accept:Connect:[69.64.70.53]
20031121092331-0800:LoadHostFilterTable: loading name: Filter-Header desc:

20031121092336-0800:OUT: otis.kaiwi.com Mail Transactions between 
these Addresses Prohibited
20031121092336-0800:SMTP-Accept:MESSAGE DISCARDED
20031121092336-0800:IN: QUIT
20031121092336-0800:OUT: otis.kaiwi.com ESMTP server closing connection
20031121092336-0800:SMTP-Accept:Close:[69.64.70.53]:5:0:19691

Then these files are stored in the /messages folder:

-rw-rw----   1 mta  mail  19056 Nov 21 09:23 
20031121172332.AAA10481@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx@out-53.ci.directid.net-Body
-rw-rw----   1 mta  mail    748 Nov 21 09:23 
20031121172332.AAA10481@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx@out-53.ci.directid.net-Header


So, I guess it was deliverable mail until an IP Filter MATCHed it and 
stored it there.
