Need to save a copy of outgoing mail (qmail-send)

[udu]

I need to be able to save a copy of all outgoing email on my qmail server in a folder. What would be the best way to do this ?
I would imagine that I would need to add a line to my /var/qmail/supervise/run file.

Any ideas ?
Thanks

Set QUEUE_EXTRA to "Tlog\0" and QUEUE_EXTRALEN to 5 in
conf-unusual.h. Recompile qmail. Put ./msg-log into ~alias/.qmail-log.

You can also use QUEUE_EXTRA to, e.g., record the Message-ID of every
message: run

| awk '/^$/ { exit } /^[mM][eE][sS][sS][aA][gG][eE]-/ { print }'

from ~alias/.qmail-log.

hi i can suggest u a simple step ....

make some changes in ur extra.h before u compile qmail

Set QUEUE_EXTRA to "Tlog\0" and QUEUE_EXTRALEN to 5

save extra.h and run make setup check

now all ur incoming and out going mail copy will automatically sent to a user name called log. it will not created by default u have to create this account manually .once u done it u can get all incoming and out going mail copy in that account

What Qmail patch set did you use? You might already have Qmail-tap compiled into Qmail for this.

Hey thanks for this guys but i couldn't save any messages on log account and for some reason i kept getting an error just wen i was doing normal things and i can't understand why.

This is a bit worrying as it was totally fine, but now i do get the occasional eroor message but its not all the time!
