Hello, i have an issue:
i have Microsoft SMTP Virtual Server, which listens to smtp requests.
Each requests, needs to be passed to a directory, instead of passing it to a mail server.
i've used the "Smart host" and declared a dummy domain, thus, the files are staying at the "Queue" folder.
i wanted to make a job that listens to the directory, and parses those EMLS, then, i want to delete the files, but that was a problem, because the files are being used by another process (the SMTP server itself).
i found out that once in a while, the files are unlocked, then locked again, so i can sit on the directory and try to get the files out of there, but again, its not elegant.
* Is there a way to tell the SMTP virtual server to send the files to a directory?
* i've played a bit with the retry intervals, declared them to 99 minutes, but still, the server sometimes locks the files in the queue, so i can't take it out of there...
any help would be appreciated.
thanks!
