[Dovecot] Is mail deleted when mail-filter fails?
Hi,
While experimenting with the mail-filter, during some tests my filter failed with a non-zero exit code and did not write any data to the output. This seems to result in a lost email. Is this correct? Is there a way to gracefully handle error from a mail-filter out script?
Kind regards,
Martijn Brinkers
Hmm I seems to have the habit of answering my own emails on this list due to my own stupidity ;) (note to self: wait some time before asking a question). It turns out that the LDA delivery agent did not succeed so the email was still in the MTA queue. In other words, the email was not delivered and was retried.
Kind regards,
Martijn Brinkers
