Package: rss2email Severity: minior Hello Maintainer,
I run an intranet server for 73 users and du to X-Mas spam I was runing
out of diskspace on /home where the MAILDIR of the users are.
While procmail send an error back to my courier-mta and the mail stayed
without problems undelivered in the spool of the courier-mta, "r2e run"
was not able to detect "disk full" state and killed ANY *.dat files to
ZERO Bytes.
I consider this as a grave error and of course, feed config and download
log should be seperated as already mentioned in another Bug-Report.
To avoid a sitze problem (it seems, r2e can not handel *.dat files with
more then 1200 kBytes) in the *.dat files I have already splited my RSS
Fedds into:
~/.rss2email/Bia2.dat
~/.rss2email/Erdbeerlonge.dat

~/.rss2email/Spiegel_Online_-_Wirtschaft.dat
~/.rss2email/Texas_Instruments.dat
and run them timely organized from "crontabs".
I suggest to split the *.dat files into
1) *.conf containe the feed info
2) *.dat containe Info about downloaded articles
Also should r2e verify before downloading articles, whether it can write
a temporary file in the appropriaed sizes which then is moved to the
original *.dat file. All other actions are definitively crap.
Thanks, Greetings and nice X-Mas
