Yes, it does seem like IMail is not calling Declude.
What concerns me for everyone's sake is that while this may have been
happening for a while, many people may have been deleting the orphaned
files as unexplained leftovers (you see something in the queue from a
few weeks back, but you think the server has been processing mail in
that period flawlessly without a restart, so you just trash it).
I've taken to running this primitive batch file every 15 minutes using
Task Scheduler. It uses the good 'ol Archive bit to lok for files that
stay locked in the _~ state and therefore are skipped by IMail.
--BEGIN BATCH FILE--
@echo off
echo These files were marked earlier...
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /x /a:-a c:\imail\spool\*.~md') do echo c:\imail\spool\%%i
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /x /a:-a c:\imail\spool\*.~md') do echo c:\imail\spool\%%i
>>C:\imail\spool\FoundFiles.TXT
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /x /a:-a c:\imail\spool\*.~md') do C:\IMAIL\SMTP32.EXE
C:\imail\spool\%%i
echo These files are now marked...
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /x /a:a c:\imail\spool\*.~md') do echo c:\imail\spool\%%i
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /x /a:a c:\imail\spool\*.~md') do attrib c:\imail\spool\%%i -a
--END BATCH FILE--
I would *greatly* appreciate it if a few others could put this in
place on their servers and let me know how fast (or if) FoundFiles.TXT
fills up. NOTE: this batch file will not be usable by anyone who
doesn't use an outbound gateway, however, as it expects a very short
queue lifetime, with all all retries done by the gateway.
