[...] For clarification: "exim -bP log_selector" does not show all enabled selectors, it shows the value of the respective main configuration setting. e.g. if log_selector is not set it shows an empty value, instead of exim's compile-time defaults[1]. So unless the command shows "-delay_delivery" the respective logging option is set. cu Andreas [1] acl_warn_skipped connection_reject delay_delivery dnslist_defer etrn host_lookup_failed lost_incoming_connection queue_run rejected_header retry_defer sender_verify_fail size_reject skip_delivery smtp_confirmation tls_certificate_verified tls_cipher -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
