There is no command that generates a list.
Delivery failures are saved in $localstatedir/track. Each failed or
deferred delivery gets saved as [timestamp] [status][address], where
status is A, D, or F (accepted, deferred, failed).
Thank you very much for the detailed answer! I have also another
questions here:
1. What's mean of a name of files in track/ directory?
Is it related with files in msgq/?
2. What's relationship between e-mail addresses saved in
the same file in track/? Are all of them recipients of
the same message?
It's a timestamp. Roughly a new file gets created about every two hours.
After a while, the older ones are removed.
There is no relationship between addresses in the file file. New addressed
blocked for generating backscatter are always appended to the current file,
until it's time to create a new one.
Hi Sam,
Thanks a lot for your answer! I still don't understand why status
of delivery failure can be A (accepted)?
Because earlier mail delivery to this recipient was rejected (D or F).
But now that a message to this recipient was succesfully delivered, so this
address, which still appears earlier in the file, should no longer be
rejected for backscatter.
