hi Team,

Can you please help us in how to view the email content/body where we install PMTA in the server.

Thanks.

Configure PMTA to write the message to disk and view it there

[msuser]

but in general or by default where does PMTA writes/saves the emails temporarily in the Q. and how can we view emails content/body from this Q?

[ReyM]

You can create a VMTA for testing

Code: [Select]

<virtual-mta test123>
<domain *>
file-format newfile-pickup
file-destination <path>$domain/$user
</domain>
</virtual-mta>

Or if you are looking for incoming, use the domain directive

Code: [Select]

<domain [domain-in-question]>
    max-msg-rate unlimited
    type file
    file-format newfile-pickup
    file-destination <path>/$domain/$user
</domain>

They are in the spool directory, the location of which can be found in the config file.  However, DO NOT handle the files while PowerMTA is running as it may cause PowerMTA to crash.
