Cronjobs..........
Hi all,

I have Gossamer-Mail working GREAT on my server (apart from the error when signing up about invalid name)......

I have incoming.pl setup as a cronjob every 5 minutes, so I was wondering do I need to do the same with outgoing.pl or not? - It is using sendmail for outgoing messages.

Hi,

Yes, outgoing.pl is what will send out bounces, auto-replies and forwards and needs to be on a cronjob (how often is up to you). Typically it can be set higher then incoming.pl.

Cheers,

Alex

Hi thanks for the reply.

I think I'll set it for every 30 mins - is that about right or too high?

It's totally up to you. =) That time is how long (max, quite often shorter) it will take for a bounce, auto-reply, or user forward to get sent.

Cheers,

Alex
