I've just experimented with syslog.pm. Here's some info, though it may not be gospel and is definitely not helping with everything.

I suspect that the two versions of each, denoted by M and T, refer to the two different versions of the message that exist as Pegasus processes the sending. You may have heard of the "final form" message. This is where Pegasus takes the message you've submitted for sending and finalises it ready for delivery before initiating transfer to your SMTP server.

The NNYNNN section clearly refers to the selected options of the six boxes for Copy to self, Urgent, Confirm Reading, etc.

Your identity is also listed apparently (my syslog.pm said "default").

I tried to send to a couple of addresses and, to reproduce your error, included a period rather than a comma between the two recipient addresses. I immediately received a delivery failure message that said "553 Invalid address syntax". Neither address received the message. Your example had several recipients so perhaps all but the first two *did* get the message.

Hi,

Could anyone please tell me what the codes in SYSLOG.PM means?

E.g.,  M/T, the hyphen following the subject, the number (0/1/2/8, etc) and the Y/N (YYYNNN / YYYNNY, etc) part. Also, why is  every post duplicated, with just the M/T code changing?

Something may have gone wrong in sending a mail to multiple recipients or a distribution list, but I do not know how to decode this file. Or even if it will tell me what the problem is.

The problem is the following: I am trying to find out what

happened when a comma was accidentally replaced by a punctuation mark in

the address field. Please notice the error right after the first

address:

"Recipient 1" <name1@org1.com>. "Recipient 2"

<name2@org2.com>, "Recipient 3" <name3@org3.com>,  "Recipient

4" <name4@org4.com>, etc.

Who will receive the mail?

I would be very grateful for both a general SYSLOG.PM explanation, and for an explanation on my addressing problem. Thank you!

Best regards, Kristoffer
