exinext - program to extract information from exim retry database
exinext domain
A utility called exinext (mostly a perl script) provides the ability to
fish specific information out of the retry database. Given a mail
domain (or a complete address), it looks up the hosts for that domain,
and outputs any retry information. At present, the retry information is
obtained by running exim_dumpdb (see below) and post-processing the
output. For example:
exinext [email protected]k
kanga.milne.fict.book:100.100.8.1 error 146: Connection refused
first failed: 21-Feb-1996 14:57:34
last tried: 21-Feb-1996 14:57:34
next try at: 21-Feb-1996 15:02:34
roo.milne.fict.book:100.100.8.3 error 146: Connection refused
first failed: 20-Jan-1996 13:12:08
last tried: 21-Feb-1996 11:42:03
next try at: 21-Feb-1996 19:42:03
past final cutoff time
You can also give exinext a local local_part, without a domain, and it
will give any retry information for it. Exinext is not particularly
efficient, but then it isn't expected to be run very often.
There is extensive documentation available in /usr/share/doc/exim and
in the info system regarding exim. Please be sure to have the exim-doc
package installed.
This manual page was stitched together by Christoph Lameter <clame[email protected]> from the original documentation coming with the sourcepackage
for the Debian GNU/Linux system.
