| The delivery agent used |
syslog equate |
The
sendmail program calls other programs (called
mail delivery agents) to perform that delivery. Some delivery agents
are external (as for local delivery), and others are internal (as for
network delivery). The mailer=
syslog equate shows the symbolic name (Section 20.1) of the delivery agent that was used to
perform delivery to the recipient:
mailer=agent
A list of symbolic names assigned to delivery agents can be viewed
with the -d0.15 debugging switch (-d0.15). The mailer=
syslog equate is shown only for recipient
records.
