Bug reports should be sent to Martin.Wendel@its.uu.se.
Please include a transcript of the log or run emil with the debug
flags -hhhh and also include the message that fails. Also mention
what OS you're using. To ensure that the message causing the error
is sent unconverted please save it to a file, encode it and send it
as an attachment.
Known causes of error are:
* Syntax errors in emil.cf
Check the error message below:
Emil-Error-message: Config file: Confextr: invalid match confextr("UUENCODE", "<NULL>", "APPLICATION") at line 88 around ''
This implies a syntax error at line 88 in emil.cf.
Action: Correct the error on line 88 in emil.cf.
* Allocation errors
Check the error message below:
Jan 1 15:21:45 alba emil: load_data cannot allocate memory
If you get this error message you're in trouble. This implies
that there's no paging space left and emil is unable to allocate
memory.
Action: Increase the size of the page area. As a rule of thumb
the page area should be at least twice the size of the physical
memory.
* Sendmail loops
If you configure sendmail to use emil as a loopback mailer and
you do it wrong you will create a loop that will fill up the
spool area or the page are, which ever gets full first, in a
matter of seconds. Don't do these kind of changes to a sendmail.cf
that is in production. Instead make a test copy of sendmail.cf
and try it out with the -bt flag on sendmail. If using the When emil calls
back to sendmail, it will use the address @emil:<address>.
Therefore make sure this address resolves to <address> and
a mailer not equal to the emil mailer.
