David Harris has posted some current information about the next version of Mercury in the development blog!

It doesn't - normaly it's not neccessary. If Pegasus can't send a message (even after several retries), the sender of the message will get an errormail. Depending of Mercurys configuration it will include parts of (most headers) or whole mail.

For purposes of finding a problem you may activate the session log. Than ALL mails will be saved in a file. But in most countries due to privacy policies you are not allowed to activate that feature for ever.

Thank you Rolf.

1. Windows XP is fine. No limit for simultaneous connections applies to the ports used by a mail server.

2. I didn't try that but as long as Linux allows the VM access to all required ports it should be OK.

/Rolf 

Mine does not ;-)

Just being curious: Do you have a link showing how this would look like?

Konrad

There were NO attachments shown at all.

Cannot share more details since I got rid of Win 8 ;-). Went back to Win 7...

Thanks anyway

Konrad

You can easily script it.

JavaMail is a used to send and receive email via SMTP, POP3 and IMAP. JavaMail is built into the Java EE platform, but also provides an optional package for use in Java SE. You may refer to the code below.

import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
// Send a simple, single part, text/plain e-mail
public class TestEmail {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // SUBSTITUTE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESSES HERE!!!
        String to = "sendToMailAddress";
        String from = "sendFromMailAddress";
        // SUBSTITUTE YOUR ISP'S MAIL SERVER HERE!!!
        String host = "smtp.yourisp.invalid";
        // Create properties, get Session
        Properties props = new Properties();
        // If using static Transport.send(),
        // need to specify which host to send it to
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
        // To see what is going on behind the scene
        props.put("mail.debug", "true");
        Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
        try {
            // Instantiate a message
            Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
            //Set message attributes
            msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
            InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};
            msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);
            msg.setSubject("Test E-Mail through Java");
            msg.setSentDate(new Date());
            // Set message content
            msg.setText("This is a test of sending a " +
                        "plain text e-mail through Java.\n" +
                        "Here is line 2.");
            //Send the message
            Transport.send(msg);
        }
        catch (MessagingException mex) {
            // Prints all nested (chained) exceptions as well
            mex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}//End of class

Thanks Rolf,. You edit the path auth.mer with full path the .mer file (C:\xampp\MercuryMail\AUTH.mer ) and fix other setting, Problem solve..thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you

Could it be that rule conditions are a bit too wide, so that it triggers once for the list and again when the message is delivered to each list member?

/Rolf 

There have been a bunch of threads about non-working xampp configurations on the forum, so you might start by searching them out and see if the answers there can help you. If not, please post the contents of your mercury.ini file (hide any password but please leave other stuff unchanged) and we'll see what we can suggest.

Well, the simplest solution would be to create 10 filters, each screening out a single digit?  Are the domain names always the same?  If so... hmm, this is complicated.  If you do this, ANY email with even a single digit will be snagged, which you may not want.

[quote user="cmolloy"]Only one mercy process running, I stopped the service, closed the Mercy32 Console, Opened the Mercy32 Console and tested, mail flow now showing in the status windows..... I started the service and mail flow still showing....

Thanks for your help.[/quote]

Did I misread this - is it now fixed?

wow thank you so much, this did the job, as you can tell im totally new to this software and I wasn't aware of the security options I had to configure first.

It appear so be working fine now, thanks again :)

I'm not clear about exactly what the rule is though. [If header To contains "colleen.kelly@student.college.edu"] should trigger the rule. Remember that global filtering rules look at the message headers, not the SMTP envelope information.

/Rolf 

As you provided few details I quoted what the Wiki says about locked mailboxes in general. The part about IMAP access says:

"multiple IMAP client sessions against the same mailbox through MercuryI are allowed" 

If you have a situation where there is a problem with this, please post a MercuryI session log (or relevant parts of one).

/Rolf 

Rolf, got it. thank  you!!!

Assuming you can get some sort of connection for your server while your ADSL is down, the simplest solution is to get a Dynamic DNS (maybe no-ip.org as dyndns.org now charges for new accounts) and set up the update client on your Merc server.

Then set that dynamic domain name as your secondary MX.

Under normal conditions both MX records point to your static ADSL IP.

When the ADSL is down, get your other connection up and the update client will point your dynamic name at the new IP and mail deliveries will fail on the primary and fall back to the secondary, which is now pointing at your Mercury via the temporary connection IP.

No need to enrich google with all your data. :)

1. Maybe.

2. Lots.

3. No.

4. Yes.

I've been using Outlook as my IMAP client to Mercury for a number of years, with few problems.  But this weekend my Mercury disk ran out of space, and now I always get error messages that "Your server reported a UID that does not comply with the IMAP standard.  This typically indicates a server bug.  Your program may not function properly after this", with the following details:

MsgSeqNum 12250, New UID 179, Prev UID: 12168, Next UID: 0.

Can anybody shed any light what went wrong?

I already tried deleting the local Outlook IMAP cache and rebuilding it.  It made no difference.

Thanks, Eric
