I use PowerMTA to send emails, and I don't understand sthg :
I would like to know simply if an email has been successfully received or has been bounced.
I've read that PMTA can handle this with acct-file.
Here is what I tried :
<acct-file /bounce.csv>
record b,d
record-fields b bounceCat,header_Message-Id
record-fields d bounceCat,header_Message-Id
</acct-file>
Then I send a single email to 5 different people (those email address exist).
Result expected in bounce.csv :
For each message_id : a line with a "d" (delivered) record. A total of 5 lines.
What I get instead :
For each message_id, I get several records like this :
d,success,<message_id_1@domain.com>
d,success,<message_id_1@domain.com>
d,success,<message_id_1@domain.com>
b,bad-mailbox,<message_id_1@domain.com>
d,success,<message_id_2@domain.com>
d,success,<message_id_2@domain.com>
d,success,<message_id_2@domain.com>
b,bad-mailbox,<message_id_2@domain.com>
Why many "d" record appear for each email sent? And why a "b" (bounced) record appear also ?
And which type of record should I use : a "b" record, a "rb" (remote bounce), or a remote status record? I'm a bit lost...
Any idea?
