Assistance needed. Odd one
Hi All,

I've setup postfix to relay to dbmail-lmtpd and it works fine.
I can see the data stored in mariadb.

The odd part is that it is duplicating/mutiplying the emails.
I can sometimes see 200 copies of the one email stored in the DB.

Has anyone any idea what could cause this?

Regards,
Ciaran.

There's an option in dbmail.conf, suppress_duplicates I think, that may be
what you want.



If it doesn't fixed it all, something else is going on.

I have suppress_duplicates enabled.

I think what's happening is that if a mail is sent to 200 people, dbmail is saving 200 separate copies of the mail in the DB rather than 1 copy of the subject/body and linking 200 to: fields to the subject/body.

Is this expected behaviour?

suppress_duplicates is *not* what you need.

dbmail *never* stores separate copies of emails, not even when ou copy
messages around.

it *does* store references to identical messages (dbmail_messages) or to
identical mime-parts (dbmail_partlists).

so: nothng to worry about - probably.
