[Dovecot] RFE: please add mail queue id to 'sent vacation response' log line
May I ask to add receiving smtp server mail queue id to sieve 'sent vacation response' log line?
Now:
2014-05-09T15:04:32+02:00 name/ip dovecot: lmtp(8164, user1@domain): YvJFLVbSbFPkHwAASpgOhg: sieve: msgid=000301cf6b87$36be4570$a43ad050$@us.edu.pl size=46850: sent vacation response to user2@domain
Asked for something like this:
2014-05-09T15:04:32+02:00 name/ip dovecot: lmtp(8164, user1@domain): YvJFLVbSbFPkHwAASpgOhg: sieve: msgid=000301cf6b87$36be4570$a43ad050$@us.edu.pl size=46850: sent vacation response to user2@domain (smtp:[ip]:port): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as mailqueueid) <<<
In case there are more than one vacation response recipients there is no way to identify who had received the response and who hadn't.
Thanks.

think again about the real mail-flow:
- the MTA receives and queues the message
- then the message is sent via LMTP from the MTA to dovecot LMTP
- from where do you think dovecot-lmtpd shoukd get the MTA's queue id?

AFAICS dovecot sieve plugin is able to send mail (vacation response, forward mail) via SMTP MTA.
Thanks.

you stripped the relevant part of my response
yes, it sends a *NEW* message via the MTA
but that don't change the fact the dovecot don't know the queue id of the *original* message received by the MTA

OK, I need just this *NEW* mail queue id.

You're right - but this is something I don't need: this information can be found looking at sieve queue id on sending LMTP server.
Thanks.

Reindl, you're answering the wrong question. The OP asked to add the MTA response while sending the *new* message. This has nothing to do with the original message.

Hello,
I like to support that request.
It would allow me to exactly follow the mailflow in case any user
claim "I did not get a vacation response."
With a complete QueueID chain I could turn that into "You did not
*read* the vacation response"
Does not happen often but would be help full...
Need to mention: it rely on "submission_host = $SMTP-SERVER" in dovecot.conf. No idea how it looks on submission via /usr/sbin/sendmail...

Yeah, would be a cool new debug feature to log the MTA response.

The outgoing vacation message is logged in the local MTA then. No need for dovecot debug output then, except the return code of the sendmail executable where the mail is piped into.
