Reduce email queue
I have an issue, I have a server that I'm using for email testing, so it sends emails back and forth (long story).
Anyway, Sometimes I get a message that the Exim queue is large.
I think this is because emails are being retried several times.
Is there anyway I can set Exim just to try once, if the email fails, that's fine, just drop it.
I have looked in Exim config, but I can't figure out how to do this.
Any tips?

Hey there! Can you clarify what the message is that you're receiving about the Exim queue? If you want to adjust the retry limits for Exim, you would use the WHM >> Exim Configuration Editor under the "Advanced" tab and scroll down to the very end. Details on adjusting those values can be found here: 32. Retry configuration 0 -
Hmm, I looked at that, but its like Greek to me. But, with a little help fromchatGPT: My original values: +secondarymx * F,4h,5m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,8h * * F,2h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,8h I changed that to: * * F,2h,15m; F,2h,15m; F,2h,15m Does the above mean there will be 3 retries? 0 -
The values are all related to each other. In your example, this would mean there is a retry every 15 minutes for 2 hours. Having that repeated three separate times won't really make a difference. You'd likely want to use one statement of this to only have 3 retries, where there are retries once per hour for three hours: * * F,3h,1h 0
