Unlimited retry problem over maxRetries!
Hi all,
I'm testing james with using OutlookExpress.
Now I am testing undelivered email.
But I have two problems.
test enviroment
delaytime = 60000 (about 1 minute)
maxRetries = 2
testcase 1:
test data: To: xxx@yyy.ccc
process : james has made 3 email as follow (stream and object each).
-first mail: original email
-second mail: from Postmaster to sender
-third mail: from Postmaster to Postmaster
result :
In outgoing directory, first mail was built.
After first mail was deleted, second mail was built.
After second mail was deleted in outgoing directory,
third mail was built in 'error' directory.
I think this is normal output of James.
But I have a problem.
problem: When does email in 'error' be deleted?
testcase 2:
test data: To: steelsca@yahoo.ca (this is normal type, but my server is blocked from outside.So although james try to deliver, it can't do that)
process : james make only 1 email(stream and object each).
- Stream email's size is changed into '0', instead of making second mail in 'testcase 1'
- And james retries to delivery unlimitedly
result(problem) :
There is no change after stream email size being changed into '0'.
Although I fix maxRetries to '2', james retries again and again.
What I want know:
1.When and How can I delete email in 'error'(test case 1)
2.After maximum retry, it must be deleted with processing like test case1. (test case 2)
How can I do that? please help me.
Thanks,
Regards,
David
