Version: 4.34-4
Severity: normal

Hello,

I'm using fetchmail to get my emails and email delivering is done by
exim4. I've noticed that freshly gotten email by fetchmail is not
delivered immediately to user accounts. In need to do an 'exim4 -q' to
flush email queue.

This behaviour is different from the Woody's one, where email is
delivered immediately to user accounts.

Is it possible to get an immediate delivery of emails got by fetchmail?

Yours,
David MENTRE

My request was rather a configuration issue than a bug: the current
limit is set to avoid DoS. I should rather configure my exim4 or
fetchmail, according to given hints.

Thank you for the explanation,
Yours,
