-d21.1
Synopsis
The -d21.1
(a.k.a. -d21
)
debugging switch causes sendmail to print each
step that it takes in rewriting addresses with rules. The
-d21.1
debugging switch causes output to be
produced that is identical to the output produced by the
-bt
command-line switch (Section 8.1):
rewrite: rule set name or number input: address rewrite: rule set name or number returns:address
First, the address (workspace) is displayed for the rule set whose name or number is shown before rewriting, and second, the address is shown after rewriting.
Because rules are recursive by nature, they can sometimes cause infinite loops (Section 18.7.2). When a rule loops more than 100 times, the following error is issued:
Infinite loop in rule set name or number, rulerule number
If the -d21.1
debugging switch was also invoked,
the preceding error is followed by:
workspace: state of rewritten address, so far, is shown here
