Message Logging

To Configure Message Logging

By default, a channel logs in each message in
/var/opt/SUNWmail/imta/log/mail.log_current. You can reconfigure the channel so that it logs in each message as it enters and is removed from the queue.

A log entry consists of the following fields:

Date and time that entry was made
Name of the source channel (channel that message originated from)
Name of the destination channel (channel that message needs to be delivered to)
Type of entry:
  E = message was entered into the channel queue
  D = message was removed from the channel queue
  Q = an unsuccessful attempt was made to remove the message from the channel queue
Size of the message in kilobytes
Address in the From: header
Address in the To: header

For more information refer to "Tracking Messages" on page 258 and the SIMS Reference Manual.
