Hi.
I have a test lab and i need to take copies of every send and recived mail, i want to have this configuration using the mappings and the channels and put the next line in the mappings file:
MESSAGE-SAVE-COPY
tcp_*|*@testlab.com|D|/opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/queue/tcp_local/*/* $Y/opt/SUNWmsgsr/msg_save/$1/$2
I ran imsimta cnbuild, imsimta refresh, imsimta restart, imsimta restart dispatcher, stop-msg, star-msg and nothing.
Exist any way to take this copies to a especific email-address (This configuratios only copy the messages to a other path in the system)?
Thanx Ram

How many mails are we talking about, here?
It's a Very Bad Idea to send a very large number of messages to a single mailbox. The server is designed to distribute large numbers of mails to many mailboxes. Not large numbers of mails to a single mailbox.
If you do route large numbers of messages to a single mailbox, you will see performance problems, out of resource space problems, full mailbox problems, and such. It's simply not good.
You should actually NEVER be running
imsimta refresh
on any live system. It does too many things you don't want to do.
It's possible you have missed the space to the left of your rule. It's possible you have some other typo in it. I"ve not parsed it carefully.
The target directory needs to be on the same filesystem as the queue. This stuff works by hard-linking.

I think so, but my customer needs to have it ( and is a small site)

Im using the default directories for queue /var/opt/SUNWmsgsr/queue/tcp_local for the name of the message file being dequeued. and /var/opt/SUNWmsgsr/queue/msg_saved for the result.
Here is part of the mappings file:

Please have a look through the posting where I fully documented this feature: http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?forumID=15&threadID=51763

Cool Jay.I have copies all inbounds mails, but the question is... how can i resend this copies to a email address?We try to use imsimport but it show an /var/mail bad formatDo you known some way to do this?Tnx Ram
# 5
Yes, imsimport is for "/var/mail" format. captured message files are not.
You can copy those messages to an existing mail user's folders, and run reconstruct -r for that user, then the messages will be visible. There is a limit on how many messages may be in any one folder. The limit is in the millions.
# 6
Sorry Jay.
I lost my serverlab machine and all the configuration this serverlab was a Solaris X86 server, copy of all inbounds was working there, now I am trying to make the same configuration in a Sparc Solaris10 Server but the copies still not working. i will try to give all the information of this configuration>

No, nothing in imta.cnf.However, white space is important in the mappings file. I can't see here in the forum, but the line that does the message-save-copy needs to be indented with one space...... If it's not there, then nothing workx

I put some pipes to show the syntaxis indented, and Im using email commands (telnet 0 25) to test the copies and the Communications Express.
Is this test proces correct?

# 11
Hi,This may not be related, but the path you have defined is not the default:/var/opt/SUNWmsgrs should be /var/opt/SUNWmsgsr/See how that goes.Shane.
# 12
Yes, the path was incorrect but still not work :-(Any cadicional Clue?Thanx Ram
# 13
ims-ms|*|D|/var/opt/SUNWmsgrs/queue/ims-ms/*/* $Y/var/opt/msinspool/$2/$3
the above all on one line.
This means you want:
Messages COMING FROM ims-ms channel, ADDRESSED TO ims-ms channel to be captured.
However, no message can EVER come from the ims-ms channel. That channel is strictly for delivery to the store.
You will want to replace the left ims-ms with "tcp_local" for messages coming from outside.
then add another line with "tcp_intranet" for messages coming from your users.

I was waiting for a SUN open ticket response, the info that they gave me was the same that Jay post here.
Then i configure other very old 5.2 messaging Server whit the same configuration as my new 6.2 messaging server (jus change the paths) and it works in 5.2 but not in 6.2.
My old server is:
iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 1.21 (built Sep 8 2003)
libimta.so 5.2 HotFix 1.21 (built 18:35:22, Sep 8 2003)
SunOS mail 5.9 Generic_112233-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-cEngine
The lines that i add to my 5.2 was:
MESSAGE-SAVE-COPY
tcp_local|*|D|/opt/iplanet/server5/msg-mail/imta/queue/tcp_local/*/* $Y/opt/iplanet/server5/msg-mail/imta/queue/msg_copy/$1
/$2
ims-ms|*|D|/opt/iplanet/server5/msg-mail/imta/queue/ims-ms/*/*$Y/opt/iplanet/server5/msg-mail/imta/queue/msg_copy/$1
/$2
tcp_intranet|*|D|/opt/iplanet/server5/msg-mail/imta/queue/*/* $Y/opt/iplanet/server5/msg-mail/imta/queue/msg_copy/$2/$3
Its posible that imsimta cnbuild does not take the new configuration and recompile it ?
Why the configuration works in 6.2-X86 and 5.2-Sparc but does not in 6.2-Sparc?

Unless you get an error message when you run
imsimta cnbuild
the cnbuild was successful, and didn't find any gross errors.
Any config that works in 6.2 on x86 should work equally on sparc. It's the same code.
# 16
The issue was a convination of paths and $options.
Filany a setup the configuration to have copies of every in/out messages
this is my setup:
In mappings file add:
For the incomming messages
ims-ms|*|D|/opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/queue/ims-ms/*/* $Y/opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/queue/msg_in_copy
the owner for the msg_in_copy messagres have to be mailsrv and the group mail
For the outgoing messages:
tcp_local|*|D||/opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/queue/tcp_local/*/* $Y/opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/queue/msg_out_copy
the owner for the msg_out_copy messagres have to be mailsrv and the group mail
Now we need a shell script to change the ims-ms-daemon addres to the monitor address (you can use sed or a perl program) and copy the messages to the reprocess queue
Now use the imsimta cache -synch command to send all the messages to the monitor email address
